LERA conference Nov. 14 at World Trade Center The Oregon chapter of the Labor and Employment Relations Association (LERA) will hold its annual conference Wednesday, Nov. 14, at the World Trade Center, 121 SW Salmon St., Port- land. LERA is an organization that brings labor, management, neutrals and aca- demics together to improve labor-man- agement relations. The conference begins at 8:30 a.m. This year’s theme is “The Future of Collective Bargaining” and will feature Michael E. Gaffney, professor emeritus at Cornell University, along with Bob Baugh, executive director of the AFL- CIO Industrial Union Council, and James Pruitt, vice president, labor/man- agement partnership labor relations, The Permanente Federation. Among the themes to be discussed at the conference are: social science findings on how people vote their value and how it effects interest in unions; or- ganizing and getting a first contract; unions and community campaigns; and what the new economy has done to col- lective bargaining. Registration is $115, with discounts for LERA members and students. Following the conference, from 5 to 7 p.m., LERA will hold an awards cer- emony and reception before going into its annual meeting. The awards presentation will recog- nize two people from labor, two from management, one from academic/neu- tral/staff agency personnel, and one emeritus practitioner who have achieved excellence in labor-manage- ment relations. The awards ceremony and reception are free to Oregon LERA members, and $20 for non-members. The annual awards are in memory of the Honorable Magdalena Jacobsen, founder of the Oregon chapter of LERA. For registration information, contact Bill Rector at 503-939-3421 or e-mail to oregon lera@aol.com. Stat of the Week The tax cuts enacted in 2001 and 2003 under George W. Bush, under current law, will expire at the end of this year. If lawmakers extend these cuts fully, 31.8 per- cent of the resulting benefit in 2013 would go to the top 1 per- cent of U.S. taxpayers.
