Memo to Enid Weissman January 23, 2012

 

MEMORANDUM                                                                January 23, 2012

TO:                  ENID WEISSMAN

M-DCPS

FROM:            JOE CORTESE

DCSMEC

 

SUBJECT        PERSONAL DCSMEC MEMBER INFORMATION

Over the last few days the DCSMEC office and Officers of DCSMEC has had hundreds of complaints about a letter that was sent to their personal home address from South Florida Building & Construction Trades Council (see attached).  At first everyone assumed the addresses came from the DCSMEC data base however, we have now confirmed that non-DCSMEC unit members also received this letter which leads us to the belief that this information may have been generated by an M-DCPS employee.

 

The DCSMEC Union and our members are very concerned about the confidentiality of our personal private information and request that the District investigates this matter.  If the source of this breach can be identified, we request that they be persecuted to the fullest extent of the law and that we be kept updated on the status of this investigation.
