 Welcome  
& Bienvenidos 

Welcome to the AFSCME Local 1072 web page!
It's good to have you here. This web page will help you reach us and get information on the latest developments in the workplace.

I don't need to tell you that we are living through difficult times. Most of the gains enjoyed by university staff are eroding beneath our feet. The university's financial priorities clearly demonstrate that we are not respected for the work we do. Sometimes it seems that the administrators operate under the delusion that the university can run itself.

Only by organizing can we make our voices heard. Our union is the best tool we have to move our cause forward.

If you are satisfied with the way things are -- stay home and watch TV. If you think things should be better not only for yourself but for all who work in higher education,
I invite you to join with us in AFSCME Local 1072. There is a better way.


Greg Johnson
President, AFSCME Local 1072
 
 
¡Bienvenidos a la página web de su AFSCME Local 1072!

Mucho gusto tenerte por aquí. Esta página web te ayudará a que te puedas comunicar con nosotros y a conseguir la información sobre los ultimos progresos en el lugar donde se trabaja.

No es necesario decirte que las épocas en las que estamos viviendo son muy difíciles. La mayoria de los aumentos que disfruta el personal de la Universidad, se estan destruyendo bajo nuestros pies.

Las prioridades financieras de la
universidad demuestran claramente que no hay respeta por el trabajo que hacemos. Pero todavia más importantemente, es que los administradores de la universidad, parecen estar funcionando bajo la ilusion que la universidad puede funcionar sin trabajadores.

Solamente organizandonos podemos hacer que nuestras voces se escuchen. Nuestra unión es la mejor herramienta que tenemos para poder llevar nuestra causa adelante.

Si estás satisfecho con la forma en que estan las cosas – quedate en casa a ver televisión. Si piensas las cosas deben ser mejores, no sólo para ti, pero para todos que trabajan en una institución de educación mayor, te invito a que te unas con nosotros en AFSCME local 1072.

Hay una manera mejor!

Greg Johnson
Presidente de AFSCME local 1072

What's New at AFSCME 1072
Clueless in Annapolis

Posted On: Oct 31, 2007 (18:34:41)
In Annapolis on Monday as we heard the fans of reactionary talk radio chanting "No New Taxes," an old saying crossed my mind:

"We have created a working class is so open-minded that it won't even take its own side in an argument."

“It’s a wonder that American workers support the 18th century robber baron agenda of the Republican Party, a party that constantly votes against their interests: tax cuts for the rich; judges who support monopolies and always rule in favor of corporations; destruction of the environment; deregulation of rules that protect consumers and workers; support for an avaricious military-industrial-pharmaceutical complex; rampant business and Congressional corruption; and a Congress that refuses to raise the minimum wage, while raising it’s own pay seven times in eight years.”

We ask you to read Governor O'Malley's budget plan carefully. It isn't perfect, but you must admit that the reactionary hotheads haven't got a clue. Ask any knee-jerk reactionary who is railing about taxes to suggest a state program to cut. I have noticed that most have absolutely no idea what state government does. So much for an informed electorate!

Twenty-four hours a day, state employees watch out for you, your family and our state. Maryland's problem is not what to cut, it's getting the freeloaders to pay their fair share.

We Need YOU!
