As many of you know that I have been dealing with a major health issue for the past six months. This illness has prompted me not to run for re-election to the next executive board. Also, I believe it is not in the best interest of the membership to have a lame duck president at this critical juncture in dealing with the county board and the Public Defender. Given the fact that Kulmeet “Bob” Galhotra is the only nominee for president, therefore President-Elect, and is the current Vice President, it would not impede the workings of the executive board if he takes over the last 2 months of my tenure. I therefore resign as President of AFSCME Local 3315 as of April 18, 2007. I have complete confidence that the current executive board can and will continue the same outstanding job they have been for doing the last two years even in my absence. It has been my honor and privilege to serve the membership of local 3315.
