DESCRIPTION:7/27/12 Press Conference On Role Of Company Union Of State Employees CAPS 
 Run By Blanning and Baker LLC (B&B)\n\nPRESS RELEASE\n \nCharles Rachlis 
 State Scientist in Unit 10 vs. California Association of Professional 
 Scientists (CAPS).\n \nOn July 27th  2012 there will be a press conference 
 held at 9:30 am at the Public Employees Relations Board (PERB) office 1330 
 Broadway, Oakland.   At 10:00 a.m. a hearing will be held in Suite 1532 the 
 PERB Oakland Office. OCCUPIERS AND TRADE UNIONISTS ARE INVITED TO 
 PARTICIPATE!\n \nCAPS (the Association representing Unit 10 workers) under 
 the control of profit takers Blanning and Baker LLC, expelled Rachlis from 
 CAPS in violation of the CAPS Policy Manual, by not convening a grievance 
 hearing within the allotted time resulting in an illegal expulsion of two 
 members (both candidates in last September's  election.) \n \nRachlis will 
 explain how Blanning and Baker LLC (B&B) control CAPS and PECG 
 (representing Unit 9 workers,) how they constructed and maintain these 
 organizations as profit making centers for their  corporation, they 
 demobilize the membership, deny democracy, thuggishly violate rank and file 
 persons bodies, ignore the rules of the organization and the laws of the 
 state of California while regularly driving out members who object. \n 
 \nRachlis fights for: reinstatement into CAPS, the nullification of 
 elections of last September  election, that it be held over again, that 
 candidates entire uncensored statements be distributed, for CAPS to break 
 its relations with the profit taking agents (B&B,)  for CAPS to  hire 
 lawyers to sue B&B for $15 million in theft of services charges for denial 
 of members rights to annual membership meeting for the last 12 years and 
 for ignoring their fiduciary responsibility (as the acting executive 
 director)  to the membership, by not directing the executive board to abide 
 the bylaws as per legal obligation and to begin holding regular membership 
 meetings.\n \nRachlis will show that PERB, empowered under the DILLS ACT, 
 signed into law by Governor Jerry Brown, does not act to protect the rights 
 of the rank and file workers, but rather acts to prevent  democracy in the 
 unions from breaking out. \n \nRachlis will use the hearing  to expose how 
 PERB and the corporate controlled CAPS join forces to impose the austerity 
 as willing tools of the ruling class.   The intention of this exercise in 
 democracy will be to show our co-workers that we cannot rely on the State 
 to defend our rights from the thugs who today control our unions because 
 the State is not class neutral.  The lesson will be that we can only win by 
 building rank and file democratic unions independent from the corporations, 
 the state and the capitalist political parities.\n \nThe result of this 
 adjudication will show that the State’s quasi-judicial administrative 
 branch stands-by while workers rights and dues dollars are stolen by 
 capitalist corporations who funnel those dues into the pockets of 
 Democratic and Republican politicians, lawyers and their own fat bank 
 accounts! \n \nContact Charles Rachlis (415)
