We believe that every law enforcement officer in Texas should be covered
by a collective bargaining agreement. We have been on the front lines in
securing this protection, pursuing collective bargaining rights in the Texas
Legislature, and have helped a number of local associations win bargaining
referendums. We represent 95 percent of the associations that currently
have the right to bargain in Texas.
With a statewide network, membership representing nearly 100 affiliates,
and an unswerving dedication to serving the interests of its members and
of the entire Texas law enforcement community, CLEAT is a major force in
labor negotiations. CLEAT has also assisted 100’s of local associations
in gaining civil service rights, pay increases and other employment rights
matters through local referendum elections.
