We coordinated strikes at a vegetable and a tomato company by workers, which resulted in Mediation resulting in contracts for approximately 550 workers.The Fund also processed 50 plus grievances on behalf of the workers under the collective bargaining agreements, grievances were settled either in the first or second step of the grievance procedure with (2) grievances going to arbitration. There were 4 worker board meetings. Multiple benefit meetings with our membership and worker board trainings. Staff trainings in areas of know your rights training, negotiations and other trainings to develop staffs skills.Hundreds of members participated in local, county, state level elections. In 2012, the Strategic Campaigns Fund primary objective was to help implement the new changes to the Agricultural Labor Relations Act signed into law in 2011 and designed to make it easier for farm workers to win collective bargaining agreements. In support of these efforts, we prepared research and supportive campaigns for farm workers attempting to organize. This included public support for organizing elections and strikes. Apart from work directly supportive of new collective bargaining agreements, we also did work passing legislation designed to prevent farm worker heat illness (two bills, both of which passed Californias state Assembly but were ultimately vetoed by Governor Brown); legislation allowing farm workers to receive overtime pay after 8 hour day or 40 hour week (passd the State Senate, failed in the State Assembly); worked to enforce Californias heat illness provisions; opposed bad guestworker legislation Federally; educated UFW membership about electoral campaigns; and supported the UFW constitutional convention by hosting external guests and publicizing activities at the convention. At the end of the year, we began serious negotiations with agricultural employers and Federal legislators about a new immigration process. false true false false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false true true false false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false true 75 0 true 95 true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 9 0 false false false false false false false true false false false true true true true false true false false false CA X Linda Rockstad 6618225571 PO Box 62 Keene CA 93531 X ERIK NICHOLSON 50.00 0.00 X 62362 0 0 ARMANDO ELENES 65.00 0.00 X 83034 0 0 DIANA TELLEFSON-TORRES 0.00 45.00 X 0 52000 0 ERICKA OROPEZA 65.00 0.00 X 42494 0 0 GIEV KASHKOOLI 60.00 0.00 X 64740 0 0 EFREN BARAJAS 65.00 0.00 X X 44205 0 0 IRV HERSHENBAUM 65.00 0.00 X X 58397 0 0 SERGIO GUZMAN 65.00 0.00 X X 70227 0 0 ARTURO S RODRIGUEZ 65.00 0.00 X X 77657 0 0 Tanis Ybarra 24.00 0.00 X 46169 0 0 549285 52000 0 true false false TRANSAMERICAN MAILING 355 STATE PLACE ESCONDIDO CA 92029 POSTAGE SERVICE 172987 RFK MEDICAL PLAN PO BOX 62 KEENE CA 93531 MEDICAL PLAN 434938 RAYMOND JAMES INSURANCE 800 CARILLON PARKWAY ST PETERSBURG FL 33716 INSURANCE 179725 NATIONAL CHAVEZ CENTER PO BOX 62 KEENE CA 93531 RENTAL/ UTILITIES 209182 ARAMARK SPORTS & ENTERTAINMENT 1001 TRUXTON AVE BAKERSFIELD CA 93301 CONVENTION CENTER 184623 7 2826601 2826601 Membership Dues 3803041 3803041 Contract Services 607147 607147 4410188 43052 43052 0 0 0 0 317808 204946 112862 0 77328 96730 -19402 -19402 Miscellaneous 12111 12111 12111 7385412 43052 4402897 0 36182 0 0 503116 0 3011777 22883 565281 339564 0 39267 51950 5000 132455 0 82262 138166 45026 31999 0 846725 525601 0 339612 71 0 5836 240462 TELEPHONE 114476 Consulting 205547 COMITTEE RANCHES 269610 DIRECT MAIL 355319 334422 8242609 0 0 0 2024811 785741 0 110000 151605 261396 383484 0 0 0 96344 58221 27752 33926 324191 315344 12641 8847 1333086 1659634 0 0 0 1 0 3866031 3081458 215120 198663 5933 142954 167043 364007 365706 X 3418569 2710547 83455 5205 3502024 2715752 3866031 3081458 -857197 70925 X false true X true false RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 324191 315344 8847 8847 Other Misc Payables 28715 Accrued Payroll 138328 167043 X X X false CONCERT SERIES 155773 155773 5714 5325 136189 GALA DINNER 148227 148227 32758 11346 11753 1 13808 13808 1861 317808 317808 38472 16671 149803 204946 112862 true 0 0 ASSISTANCE TO WIDOWS OF MARTYRS 2 36182 CASH false false false Tanis Ybarra 46169 46169 Form 990, Part VI, Line 19 Form 990, Part VI, Line 19: Other Organization Documents Publicly Available ALL DOCUMENTS REQUIRED TO BE DISCLOSED IS PROVIDED UPON REQUEST Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts THE HUMAN RESOURCE DEPARTMENT HAS A ROUTINE EMPLOYEE EVALUATION PROCESS IT USES FOR JOB PERFORMANCE AND SALARY CONSIDERATIONS THAT MONITORS CONFLICT OF INTEREST ISSUES.
