Text messages are being sent out to painters to ask for input on the allocation of the raises which will be voted on Monday July 24^th from noon to 6pm. Please come out and vote on where your money goes. Not very many people show up to vote on where their increase goes which is a very important vote to make your voice heard. Come out and vote on where your future increases will be going.
