Richard Louis Brown
Local 1000 President
As the leader of the largest public sector union in the great state of California I will NOT be bullied by this current Governor regarding the violation of our legally bargained contract! We are a true labor union that protects all of its represented employees equally.
We are Local 1000 for life!
