CFA and CSU management are working to find a solution, rather than continuing the dispute that began over 11 months ago. Both parties have agreed to honor a 48-hour blackout period, effective today, on internal strike planning, communication efforts and news.
Neither party will respond to media inquiries nor conduct media interviews regarding the status of negotiations or strike preparations during the blackout period.
CFA leaders and CSU officials plan to hold a joint news conference on Friday, April 8 in Sacramento, at which time they hope to announce a settlement.
