KABC did a
great story on how furloughs in Los Angeles’ Bureau of Street Services are preventing workers from fixing dangerous potholes caused by heavy rainfall. And City of Los Angeles street services workers brought this issue to the forefront: Through their
innovative web site,
Facebook page and on placards placed all over the city, City of LA workers who are members of SEIU 721 have been urging city officials to protect residents and their cars from the hazardous potholes. We’re happy to report that several news outlets, including
the Los Angeles Daily News, accurately credited union members for looking out for the public.
