We just received several text messages from SPFPA Local 1955 members at Disneyland calling for a NLRB decertification election from the International Union, Security, Police and Fire Professionals of America SPFPA. Presently, the International Union, Security, Police and Fire Professionals of America SPFPA represents over 1,500 SPFPA Local 1955 members at Disneyland. Most recently the SPFPA International Union has failed to negotiate a new CBA on behalf of the 1,500 SPFPA

I am a Local 1955 member asking for clarity on the contract voting process. We were told members would have time to review the contract, five voting days, and in-person access. Last time ElectionBuddy helped produce over 1,100 votes. We want ElectionBuddy and in-person voting available again so the process is fair, accessible, and transparent.
