HOW TO VOTE ON THE CONTRACT

Our bargaining team came to a tentative agreement with Hennepin County on the terms of our new contract December 17th. This agreement is called a tentative agreement because it’s not final until all dues paying members have a chance to vote on it. Our bargaining team is recommending you vote YES to approve this contract. See below for details on how to vote on the contract.
