NFFE VA Council | All for one, one for all.

Message from Jeffrey Shapiro President, NFFE VA Council

Dear Brothers and Sisters, Current and Former Bargaining Unit Members;

It is my great pleasure to announce a major victory which your Union – the National Federation of Federal Employees, VA Council of Consolidated Locals, has won on behalf of the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs bargaining unit employees.

For many years, management failed to both designate and pay many of our members correctly in accordance with overtime laws and regulations; as a result, many of you were not properly compensated for overtime work.

Your Union leadership, both past and present, worked hard for many years to reach this settlement on your behalf. In celebrating this huge victory, we remind you that this is just one of our many important successes in recent years. We want to thank our current members and if you have not already joined, we encourage you become a member of NFFE VA now!

In Solidarity,
Jeffrey J. Shapiro
Council President
NFFE VA Council
