Hey Jacky! Awesome work by you and all of CfAWU in getting this agreement across the finish line! I have to mention that this is also a historic milestone as the first official contract for the tech workers local, OPEIU 1010. With a bit of effort, my union, Nava United, will join you soon with the second contract!

I should add that Kickstarter United was really the trailblazer, though they affiliated with local 153 for their first contract because the idea for local 1010 hadn't really hatched yet. The rest of us in this burgeoning movement of tech workers within OPEIU will be unaffiliated until the local is chartered.
