Internal Email from the EPMPOA
I have a feeling this is going to be a big deal. As you can see, there is some internal dispute about the leadership of the El Paso Municipal Police Officer's Association over their bargaining with the city.
Watch Canal 26 tonight at 10 for some more information about collective bargaining and how it can be taken away. The brown stinky stuff is gonna hit the fan!

EPMPOA Members,
As an association, we are in dyer need of unity. This unity needs to start with our present EPMPOA board. We are one and we should act and be treated as such.
There is no magic solution that will allow a new start and ignore the situation at hand, we must work with what we have. As an association we must work on our relationship with Chief Allen, Joyce Wilson, every member of the El Paso City Council, and our own command staff before it is too late and damaged beyond repair.
Impeachment of our present EPMPOA President may not be the answer, though many believe this. Lets repair the damage that has been caused immediately and cross the other bridges as necessary. The EPMPOA needs to form a new negotiation team that has our members' confidence right now and start working with the City ASAP. After negotiating, if we (all of the members of our association) are not content with the outcome, we simply vote against it. With this being done, the City can never truthfully claim that the EPMPOA refused to resolve this situation.
Sincerely,
Bobby Holguin #1277
