From:    Rene G. Rodriguez, President, VCCCD Retirees’ Association
Re:         Impending Contract and Settlement Agreement Violations

The Retirees’ Association has been notified through the grapevine that the SEIU has reached a tentative agreement with the District in contract negotiations.

Presumably, this includes accepting CalPERS as the District agent for contracting SEIU health benefits and the salary increases the District has offered in exchange.

Since SEIU actions affect retiree long standing contractual and settlement agreement rights with the District, this letter is to notify you that should the Retirees’ Association decide to sue the District for contract and/or settlement agreement violations, the SEIU Local 99 will be named a party to that lawsuit.
