Senate President Martin M. Looney (D-New Haven) and Senate Majority Leader Bob Duff (D-Norwalk) today released the following joint statement regarding the University of Connecticut Professional Employees Association’s (UCPEA) overwhelming vote to return to the bargaining table.
“The hard working members of UCPEA showed great responsibility today in voting to send union leadership back to the bargaining table.
“Connecticut’s budget reality has changed since the former contract was negotiated. We are hopeful that UConn and UCPEA will reach an agreement that is fair to workers, fair to taxpayers and sustainable for years to come.”
