SEIU Local 1000 members like Dako have been underpaid & undervalued by the State for too long. Our members will keep fighting for a contract that makes a difference to our families, our communities, & to us: the workers who make California run. #UnionStrong #HotLaborSummer #1u

After over 4 months of negotiations, our bargaining team has reached an overall tentative agreement with the State of California. If ratified, the contract would significantly raise the wage floor for tens of thousands of workers as the biggest three-year contract in our history.
