OEA charged with failure to disclose and hit with motion for sanctions
The lack of action by OEA governance and by OEA rank and file leadership in this case is disturbing. To allow this case to move forward considering the Appeals court loss is a gross misuse of OEA dues dollars and appears to be a blank check for attorneys to drag out the case as long as possible. Now OEA has filed for a “partial” Summary Judgment. Rather than try to read anything into that strategy, as a member of OEA you should read the documents if you care at all about how your organization is attacking employee benefits and how it has acted in an effort to win at any cost including losing its integrity. Just how much is the organization willing o lose? Right now the benefit damages are estimated at over $47,000,000.

UAW and NSO join the Battle OEA’s tactics hurt labor
The International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace & Agriculture Implement Workers of America—UAW has filed an Amicus Curiae brief in support of retirees and against OEA arguing for the reversal of the lower court decisions. Likewise the National Staff Organization has also filed an Amicus Curiae brief in support of retirees and asking the court to reverse the lower court’s decision. Want to get the truth? Want to find out why OEA’s decision to go forward with its attacks on retiree benefits could be the worst management decision made in the history of the organization. It could cause the undermining of every labor agreement in the country including those bargained by every OEA local association in the state. Don’t sit back and be passive. Every OEA member needs to be informed. Go to the Legal Area of this web site and read all three Appeals briefs. The Retiree Brief, NSO Brief, UAW Brief. It’s your OEA!!!
