After eleventh-hour discussions with the district, PFT agreed to a resolution under which the district will compensate the two faculty members for the fall classes they lost and reinstate them this term. As a condition of the settlement, the union has agreed to have its attorney meet with the district\u2019s attorney to negotiate improvements to Article 30.H, the language covering the rehire pool.<\/p>\n<p>The brave, vocal support of part- and full-timers for the rights of all faculty played a decisive role in securing this settlement. PFT thanks everyone who stood up for the contract and their fellow faculty members and looks forward to continuing to work together to improve the professional lives of the teachers, counselors, librarians, and nurses\u2014full- and part-time alike\u2014who make up the very foundation of our colleges.<\/p>\n<p>Have a good semester\u2014we look forward to seeing you at upcoming chapter and general membership meetings!<\/p>\n<p>Matthew Goldstein, President<br \/>\nPeralta Federation of Teachers, AFT Local 1603<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/pft1603.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/flex-day-1-Copy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1360\" src=\"http:\/\/pft1603.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/flex-day-1-Copy-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"flex day 1 -
