The Executive committee would like to thank everyone who has so far voiced their concern, and the support they have shown this executive committee over the last few weeks. We have had many of you approach us to ask us questions on what, and why we posted info on the site, as it pertains to these negotiations.

We are really able to offer a quick answer and that is just what we had stated in our opening sentences in our most previous post. We were at somewhat of an impasse, with the company, and we felt that we should let the membership know the issues first hand from us. Is some of it vague? You bet, but it only allows you then, to get involved with the process and ask us questions. We are more than willing to let you know the issues, as we have seen and heard them.

We do need to remind all members that we have some days of negotiating yet, and we are no where completed with the process, or finished with other avenues we can take. We will come to the membership when it is time for you all to see what has been presented to us, as the company’s final offer. This will be the time we call the membership meeting, so you need to ensure that you watch the boards at the plant as well as right here on the website. We will give the time and place, when it required.

At that point we will review the offer with you and we will then allow YOU to make the final decision. We, don’t make the final decision, YOU do. We again thank you for your support and we will come to the membership with what we have as the company’s final offer.

Sincerely,

KINWU Executive Committee
