P-fac is not the only NEA local to experience hardships under an NEA affiliation. We invite you to read about these locals across the nation who realized, just as P-fac has, that if we are expected to go it alone at the Departent of Labor, the NLRB, the Illinois Surpreme Court, in battles with management, all the while stretched thin with no staff support, then we might as well make it official and use our resources to better serve our members.
