Tell the Minneapolis Park Board to respect workers!

ACTION ALERT: Tell the Minneapolis Park Board to respect workers!

Please take two minutes to help Minneapolis Park Board workers earn respect and a fair contract. Fill out the form below to send a message to Minneapolis Park Board Commissioners to share what you are confronting as a frontline worker, or to voice your solidarity for MPRB employees. The Board needs to listen to and respect workers.

BACKGROUND: 

Minneapolis Park employees take pride in providing the community with welcoming, clean, and enjoyable public spaces. Despite years of operating understaffed and overworked, we show up to work and we are the reason the Minneapolis park system consistently ranks in the top five across the country.

No matter what Minneapolis is going through, a health crisis, civil unrest, or citywide encampments, we go above and beyond to serve on the frontline with compassion and commitment to maintaining our public spaces. The Minneapolis Park Board has made contract proposals that will create a two-tier system with fewer protections for new employees, destroy the Parkkeeper bid system, reduce the quality of park services, and force workers to do more with less.
