Unions Target Thousands Of Minnesota Daycare Workers
Unions Target Thousands Of Minnesota Daycare WorkersTwo unions, the Association of Federal, State, County and Municipal Employees and the Service Employees International Union, are going door to door asking daycare workers to sign up for their union representation.
Union leaders tell 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS that collective bargaining could gain health care and more state subsidies for home daycare providers. Volunteer daycare workers, who are helping the unions gain signatures, say there is strength in numbers and bargaining with the state could improve conditions for them and the children they serve.
There are twelve thousand daycare workers in Minnesota and if the unions get fifty-percent of those signed up, they will ask Governor Mark Dayton to sign an executive order recognizing the daycare providers in two different unions. But, some daycare workers tell 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS that they believe union organizers mislead them into signing union authorization cards.
One daycare worker told us she thought she was signing up for more information, when in essence, she signed a union authorization card. There is a lot of money at stake for unions in the push to organize daycare providers. In Michigan, unions collected more than four million dollars in just two years.
For parents, it could mean higher daycare costs, but it will depend on the actions of their individual daycare providers. Some daycare workers might choose to pass along their higher costs of union dues and health care onto their clients. If the unions get the needed signatures, they will probably ask Governor Dayton to sign the executive order after the special legislative session this summer.
