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.
