SEIU 721 has a newly elected board and President Bob Schoonover is in charge.
Bob Schoonover
Overwhelmingly the membership spoke and got behind Bob Schoonover and his “No Givebacks” message.
Bob Schoonover is now facing a difficult road with the City of LA and LA County Board of Supervisors, budget woes and furloughs are the situation at hand Bob Schoonover has made the promise of No Givebacks and he has the backing of one of the most powerful labor leaders in Southern California Julie Butcher.
Few people know the workings of LA City hall as well as Julie Butcher and SEIU International has been put on notice that this cash cow of County and City workers in Southern California is ready to fight.
Julie Butcher needs to get back in control, and be given more responsibility in the running of Local 721, the membership has spoken and they have selected it’s leaders we can’t do it without the gritty tenacious leadership of Julie Butcher and her staff, we have elected local leaders who stand for local control and we expect our staff to be treated well and no longer undervalued.
It’s time the President of 721 tell the international thanks but no thanks and empower the true leaders to run campaigns the way they must be run and Julie Butcher is in the best position to help LA City workers at this time.
Bob Schoonover working with Julie Butcher & Linda Dent will lead us through these tough times and will allow us to fight the way 347 would have, gritty blue collar no nonsense.
Labor is down but not out in Los Angeles, the Fight is on!
Below are the official results from the SEIU 721 Election.
Congratulations to all!
