"We, the employees at Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) want justice, i.e., equal pay for equal work - No more two-tier wage system! We also want an increase in the dental cap of our dental benefit - it's been $500 for the past 20 years at least!

We want and deserve more than the 2% wage increase we got on the last contract; and more than the 3% management is offering now! Management is too greedy in my book! We workers deserve to share in the profits of the BART system. We along with management should be rightfully compensated for our contributions, our dedication to our jobs. We are not asking for it all -- just what we deserve.!" -- Miss Jerry D. Robinson, Local 790, BART, Inventory Management Department. (2001)
