Milwaukee Police Supervisors Organization

City prevails on our request for injunction:

    On July 1, Judge Elsa Lamelas ruled against the MPSO, refusing to prevent the City from forcing us into unpaid furloughs.  The request for injunction represented the timeliest route for us to stop the unfair treatment of the membership before it began.  That being said, the MPSO Board has a number of avenues available to have our members made whole, but they will take more time to pursue.  More details about how we are proceeding will be coming . . .

Contract update

     The Board has met with the City negotiating team on 5 occasions, most recently on April 14th, 2009.  Despite the MPSO offering significant cooperation on a wide variety of benefits and departmental administration, the City has remained recalcitrant, and these negotiations have failed.   

     The MPSO has requested arbitration for a successor contract.  The  WERC has scheduled a mediation date of July 7th, 2009.  If that mediation fails, the process moves on to the actual arbitration.

       Sadly, even with a  precedent setting arbitration in our favor for the last contract, the  City continues to force us away from the negotiating table in an attempt to preserve their bargaining strategy.
