This is in response to your undated letter sent to me via email on January 15, 2012, purporting to appoint an “Executive Committee Delegate pro tem” and two persons as “Delegates pro tem” to “fill vacancies in office until an election is held.

ReplyDeleteI also recommend pursuant to Paragraph 5.h.viii of the Stipulation and Order thatyou take immediate steps to mitigate the anti-democratic consequences of your delay byproviding for notice of nominations and elections to fill the vacancies in the positions atissue and that you do so should any further vacancies occur.
ReplyDeleteHey Pat - we told you before, reading is fun and mental (Journey upgrade, Remedial English) R.I.F. case. Sign up Now. If not currently offered, we'll pass the Hat for ya.
In the interim, while you're completing this and other courses & working towards becoming a U.S. Citizen, how about stepping down (resigning) and then we can save some money and order an Election for a new and competent Local 157 President simultaneously to the direction you just received.
(that means at the same bat time, same bat channel Pat. p.s. Drinking warm beer and arguing with the R.O., well - that's a deadly combination as you just found out.......DUMBASS!)
"...and that you do so should any further vacancies occur."
DeleteVacancies that might include the office of Local 157 President?
Apparently arguing one's case with vice-grips isn't what's trending now at SDNY.
You were informed by letter dated December 1, 2011, that the person elected as the Local 157 executive committee member, Daniel De Morato, had resigned. I note that you have thus been aware of the need to hold a special election to fill that vacated position but that since that time you have decided to take no steps to hold such an election. If you had acted promptly, and in the best interests of the members, Local 157 could have by now completed or be very near to completing that election process and would now or very soon have a duly-elected executive committee member. In my view, any concern that you currently may have regarding the representation of your members at the District Council could have been avoided by your insuring that such representation be achieved promptly and democratically -- rather than willfully and subjectively through a purported appointment six weeks after the vacancy occurred.
ReplyDeleteNone of the Sections of the Bylaws you cite in your letter [1, 4(A), 7(C), 7(E),12(A), 16(A)] support the theory upon which you rely.
Accordingly, pursuant to Paragraph 5.b.iii.e of the Stipulation and Order, I hereby veto the proposed “pro tem” appointments described in your letter as inconsistent with the goals of the Stipulation and Order and as being plainly at odds with the express and unambiguous wording of the Bylaws, which were crafted to further the goals of and published pursuant to the Stipulation and Order
I also recommend pursuant to Paragraph 5.h.viii of the Stipulation and Order that you take immediate steps to mitigate the anti-democratic consequences of your delay by providing for notice of nominations and elections to fill the vacancies in the positions at issue and that you do so should any further vacancies occur.
Truly yours, Dennis M. Walsh Review Officer
So, the largest Local in NYCDCC is without voice & without Vote for the Contract Negotiations. Way to go Nee! Please learn how to read for the sake of 10,400 of 21,798 (47.71%) rank & file members you just burned due to your pig-headed ways.
Note: We have other ways of communicating too. the box on the wall,aka - the "tele", fax, e-mail, letter, UPS, Fed-Ex, the USPO, carrier pigeon, bicycle courier & that new fangled device called a cell phone. And for god sakes, please take some english classes and learn how to enunciate so people know what the heck it is you are saying. The honorable thing to do now is step down.
It seems that another 11-days have past, and still he takes no action. Time to exercise the veto pen, less the democratic process mandated by the Consent Decree be mocked once more.
