Philly Firefighters File New Action to End 2009 Stalemate
IAFF Local 22 has once again taken the City of Philadelphia to court over the 2009 collective bargaining agreement that remains unresolved. The union has thus far prevailed at every decision point, yet Mayor Michael Nutter continue to defy arbitration awards and court rulings hoping for a resolution on his own terms.
Local 22 president Bill Galt was quoted as saying “My members feel we’re just being slapped in the face here. We’re getting absolutely no respect from this administration, and it’s wrong.”
