City Ignored Arbitration Ruling

Kansas City firefighters union Local 42 is back in court demanding the city comply with a binding arbitration award they won over two and a half years ago—after the city illegally assigned EMS Captain training duties to non-union members. The union won at arbitration, had the ruling upheld in court, and even lost their appeal due to missed deadlines. Now, they’re asking the city to officially reassign those roles to union members, restore back pay and benefits, and stop ignoring the law. With a court date set for August 5, 2026, the union says patience has run out—and they’re ready to enforce the ruling. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
