Los Angeles teachers urge Brown to veto bargaining bill
Leaders of two LA teacher groups and a board member pressed Gov. Brown to veto Senate Bill 190. They warned the state must provide 10 million upfront for bargaining costs and that the bill would limit teacher choice, allow strikes, and shift bargaining power to unions, risking future wage disputes. Paramount and Orcutt teachers averted strikes by accepting pay offers.
