Equal Rights for All VA Employees

Friday April 23, 2010

 

The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) and its National VA Council (NVAC) are working with the House Committee on Veterans Affairs to support legislation (H.R. 949/S. 362), which would provide full collective bargaining rights for physicians, dentists, registered nurses and other VA health care professionals covered by the Title 38 personnel system. 

Every day, public employees, including doctors and nurses working in other federal medical facilities, including DoD and Bureau of Prisons hospitals, use their collective bargaining rights to improve the quality and safety of government services. However, because of an arbitrary and overly broad interpretation of the statute, VA health care professionals whose rights are set by Title 38 (instead of Title 5 that covers most federal employees) have been barred from bargaining over even routine matters.

We need your help.  Ask your lawmakers to support H.R. 949/S. 362 in order the stop the attack on VA Employees.  Click here to send an automatic email to your congressman.
