Earlier this year, City of Orlando workers showed what is possible when union members stand together and fight. After months of bargaining, FPSU members took the City to impasse rather than accept an inadequate contract, and the Special Magistrate recommended major gains—including a 4% retroactive wage increase to September 28, 2025, a three-year contract effective October 1, 2025, upgrading Civilian Paramedics from S16 to S14, a new meal stipend for communications employees, stronger due process protections, and implementation of agreed-upon JAT study changes. We did not win everything we demanded, but our willingness to fight protected retro pay and secured improvements the City had resisted. As Orlando and other local governments face growing threats to public revenues and services, this fight remains an important reminder: when workers organize, stand together, and refuse to back down, we can protect our contracts, our public services, and the dignity of the people who keep our cities running.
