The Washington Federation of State Employees is planning to have some state workers walk off the job next month to raise awareness of what’s been happening during contract negotiations.

To unionize, Tacoma Art Museum Workers United [TAMWU] needed the majority of its 26 workers to vote yes. After two days of voting in an election overseen by the Washington State Public Employment Relations Commission, the unanimous results came in Thursday evening — 26 in favor of unionizing.
