Message from IATSE Local 99 President Richard Robbinson on HB267

IATSE Local 99,

I hope this message finds you well. 

I am writing regarding Bill 267, which has recently passed both the House and Senate in Utah and is now awaiting the Governor’s decision.

Bill 267, known as the Public Sector Labor Union Amendments, poses a significant threat to the rights of public sector employees by stripping them of their ability to engage in collective bargaining. This bill affects teachers, police officers, firefighters, and many others who serve our communities tirelessly.

The passage of this bill has sparked widespread concern and opposition, as evidenced by the recent rallies and protests at the Utah State Capitol. Many believe that this legislation undermines the fundamental rights of workers and could have long-lasting negative impacts on our public services.

We urge you to join us in calling on Governor Cox to veto this bill. Your voice is crucial in ensuring that the rights of public sector employees are protected. Please reach out to the Governor’s office and express your support for a veto of Bill 267.
