Promises made. Promises broken.
On the campaign trail, @GovernorVA committed to fighting for public workers and ensuring they had a voice on the job. This week, she vetoed legislation that would have done exactly that.

“As Virginia’s next governor, I will work with our General Assembly to make sure Virginia’s firefighters and other first responders can negotiate for the benefits and the fair treatment that is owed to them,” @SpanbergerForVA said in September.

Legislation on the desk of @GovernorVA would give firefighters the right to be at the table when important decisions are made about their wages, benefits and working conditions. And it provides a detailed framework for negotiation when viewpoints differ. Please SIGN THIS BILL.

Collective bargaining provides a predictable annual agreement for service that provides negotiated clauses allowing a locality to plan for the foreseeable future. The time is now for giving worker’s the respect and dignity they deserve. We ask @GovernorVA to SIGN THIS BILL.

Firefighters who are allowed to participate in decisions affecting their employment are happier, healthier and more productive. This leads to increased recruitment and retention, which directly impacts the safety of the citizens they protect. @SpanbergerForVA: SIGN THE BILL!

The Virginia General Assembly today rejected the substitute bill proposed by @GovernorVA on collective bargaining rights for public safety workers. This action sends the original legislation back to her desk for approval. For full news release: vpff.org/news/

VPFF Members at the General Assembly right now. We stand in solidarity with all union workers to ask for the REJECTION of the substitute bill on collective bargaining from the @GovernorVA. Reject the Substitute! Approve the original bill submitted by the General Assembly!

The VPFF stands with our union brothers and sisters throughout the Commonwealth. We need real collective bargaining legislation, not the substitute sent from the governor. Reject the substitute! Approve the original conference committee bill!
ICYMI: This week, unions representing hundreds of thousands of Virginia workers called on the General Assembly to reject anti-worker changes that gutted the historic Collective Bargaining bill.

We appreciate our 911 Dispatchers and Communications Officers who serve our community 24/7/365! Referred to as the "first" first responders, they are a critical component of America's public safety response system. We are happy to represent so many of them as part of the VPFF.
