Thousands of San Jose city workers are voting today on whether or not to go on strike after their contract expired more than a month ago, union officials say.
The union is calling on city officials to address staffing shortages that are impacting existing employees and affecting"the delivery of high-quality public services to residents.
""We are committed to negotiating a deal that’s fair to everyone – our workers and our residents who rely on the essential services our city provides," Mahan said."But the hard truth is, this money has to come from somewhere. If my council colleagues want to go beyond our last, best and final offer of a 5% raise plus increased paid parental leave next year, they will have to identify which core city services they are willing to cut.
