The Los Angeles Unified School District is proceeding with layoffs of classified workers. This action follows the recent ratification of a contract negotiated by SEIU Local 99. SEIU had previously canceled a planned strike by 30,000 workers. The union now circulates a petition demanding the district rescind all layoffs. LAUSD faces significant deficits and reportedly uses private contractors for similar work.
