Petition Delivery
The CAPS Member Action Committee hosted a Petition Delivery Event on Friday, May 6, 2022. The event consisted of members present marching to the offices of four agency secretaries (Jared Blumenfeld – CalEPA, Wade Crowfoot – CNRA, Mark Ghaly – CHHS, and Karen Ross – CDFA) and Governor Newsom to deliver larger-than-life petitions, signed by hundreds of CAPS members and the public, in support of equitable pay for State Scientists. The Committee thanks all those who attended and hopes even more will attend additional events in the future in support of our Bargaining Team’s efforts.
