2 homes, 2 cars, 1 union boss!

Perez hears that SEIU staff in San Diego picketed the home of their boss, appointed Local 221 President Sharon Francis-Moore last Friday night. Apparently she's been trying to take advantage of exceptions for smaller employers in labor laws like FMLA to take leave away from local union staff.

Rumor is she's also she's been using dues money for use of a limo and other celebrity trappings, and was in Martha's Vineyard a couple of weeks ago looking to buy a vacation home.

Francis-Moore makes about $125,000 a year, and has the dubious honor of being "The first president of an SEIU local to come from outside the organization." The story goes that Stern met her at a party in New York, and thought she'd just make a fabulous local president.

Perez wonders if she's finding SEIU a big change from running an organization that "focuses on revitalizing the retail stores in Tribeca" and runs speed dating events? "The organization’s goal, said president Sharon Francis-Moore, has always been to bring people Downtown."

This latest comes on top of the string of charges filed against Francis-Moore by members last year. What a surprise that yet anther Frankenstein local is having problems!

What is Perez Stern?

SEIU staff and officers think they can hide in the dark. Already in their hostile takeover of UHW they've injured members, held boss-style captive audience meetings for staff, and refused to give us their names.

Andy Stern and his appointees love to think they're rich, famous, powerful, and accountable to no one. A member led union just doesn't fit in with their plans for stardom! They like to drive around in SUVs with tinted windows, acting like they (literally) own the place.

So if they want to be famous, let's help them! If you're an SEIU member or employee, tell Perez what the SEIU trustees and appointees are up to, and help them feel just like Paris Hilton.
