Hello everyone,

Great analysis of Seiu homecare union in California!

Marta Russell, ...So far in LA, no worker wages have been raised. Meanwhile, the union will gain membership - thousands of dues paying homecare workers( about a half million dollars per month in dues in LA county alone). In some cases paying $12 a month dues will mean that a worker's pay will drop below minimum wage which in turn will cause more hardship, because this line of work is rarely full time, it is often less than part time. I hope the home care workers will MAKE the union see to it that they get a better deal, though there is little hope for pay increases without major legislative changes in Sacramento...

Doyle Thanks, regards, Doyle Saylor
