Guilty

I am guilty of passing out job information and I will do it again. The BA can get off his ass and talk to Union Brothers and Sisters that are hungry for work. He does not have the time to answer the phone. Give US a break !!!

Forty Republicans

Forty Republican members of the United States Senate betrayed veterans today when decided that denying President Obama a victory was more important than spending $1 billion to create jobs for vets.

Romney

I severed my country by giving them a blank check of myself. I severed my country with four years of military service and two tours of duty in Vietnam. I carry my scars and memories in my soul and in my heart. Know bank will place them in a...
vault.

Romney compares not “What you can do for your country” but but look how much I suffered to make money.
Proud to be a "Disabled Veteran and a Retired Union Millwright"

Rom-money says
One day after he was roundly criticized by both parties for his comments about Libya, Republican Presidential nominee Mitt Romney attempted to burnish his foreign-policy credentials today, telling reporters that “no one has spent more time overseas than my money has.”

“My money has served in banks from Switzerland to Bermuda, and from Bermuda to the Cayman Islands,” Mr. Romney said. “I challenge my opponent’s money to equal that record of service.”

Unions Pay Better

Unions Pay Better



It always seems strange why anyone would chose to make less money,less benefits,less insurance,less retirement,less and less. Just how dumb does it take… Not to be able to realize the benefits of belong to a group that looks out for you and your family
Union definition:
"A combination so formed, especially an alliance or confederation of
people, parties, or political entities for mutual interest or benefit"
Every doctor,every lawyer,every teacher,every realtor,every police officer, every professional baseball payer,every professional football player,every professional basketball player,every professional umpire,every dentist belongs to a organization or association to that offers help and support to that individual or group. Our country is full of professional associations that take dues form their members.

But if a worker joins a group to help themselves.
That person becomes a low life dirty dog. This starts with industry and people who are ignorant of Unions and of the real work place.

Jobs are moved over seas to the cheapest labor cost and less government control….. Does that mean that we who work with our hands,our brains and our hearts have to make third world wages? Does this mean that we have to work in a unsafe environment? Do we have to sacrifice our health, our bodies and our loved ones?
There is always someone who will work cheaper, with less safety and less concern about our environment.
Just look at big business….. The owners of mines,factories and companies who are fined or arrested each year for pollution,safety violations,harassment,lying,endangering their employees.
The Ceo’s that steal hundreds of millions of dollars from their companies and stock holders. If you think Unions are corrupted? You hand better take a good look at big business. The IRS does?

Today we need organization of Labor more than ever.

Unions …. "The people who brought you the weekends"

Union Millwright and Damn Proud Of It

How can I support my union?

How can I support my union?


There are a number of things members can do to make the Union even stronger than it is today. Participating in your local union, sticking together, and educating potential members and the public about our unions are simple, everyday ways we can support our unions.

  • Attend local union meetings regularly. If you cannot attend meetings, talk to your shop steward or other members about what took place and try to make the next one.
  • Stay informed. Keep up with current events and what's happening in your workplace. Keep up with news that affects you and your union.
  • Participate in union elections. Whether it's elections for officers, contract votes or local union business, your opinion counts and can make a difference.
  • Get to know your steward, he or she is your primary contact with your union and can answer many of your questions or refer you to the appropriate resources.
  • Get to know your local officers and trustees. Many local unions provide contact information and bios on their web sites.
  • Review your local union bylaws. Each local is autonomous and has its own set of rules and guidelines.
  • Attend union rallies and events when you can. You may not be able to make them all, but standing together shows strength in numbers.
  • Become an e-activist. Read and participate on blog sites in your community or state, or start your own blog. Join Union sites on MySpace, YouTube, Facebook and other social networking sites. Comment on local newspaper or TV station web sites to provide the Union perspective
  • Spread the word. If you hear about an issue that concerns you, tell your friends, relatives and coworkers and show them how to get involved. Educate others. Talk about what being a Union means to you. Tell your friends, relatives and other workers you bump into about benefits of being a Union Member.

Unions

Unions:
Strip away all the good Unions have done for America since its earliest days,
and you would see an ugly picture. The truth about the value of Unions in
America is found in our history. Don't believe the lies about Unions. Be
deligent and responsibl­e enough to learn the facts about all the good Unions
have done for all American's­ not just for their members.

Unions Matter

More importantly,
 unions matter because who else will speak on behalf of workers? The Chamber of Commerce speaks for the interests of business and AARP speaks for the interests of the elderly, but who speaks for workers everywhere? Unions do. If workers are to have a share in the future prosperity of this country, they need unions to advance their issues. Otherwise, the voices of corporations, the rich and the well connected will drown out the voices of average American workers

In order for unions to remain strong, we must remain united at the ballot box.

Nations Inequality

If we want to do something about this nation's inequality, if we want to rebuild the middle class and if we want to train the greatest work force the world has ever seen, we need unions.

Mitt Romney once again laid into unions on Thursday as he accepted the endorsement of the Associated Builders

Mitt Romney
 once again laid into unions on Thursday as he accepted the endorsement of the Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC), a staunchly anti-union industry group:
Thursday’s crowd was particularly receptive as Mr. Romney said he would pursue right-to-work laws and forbid unions from collecting dues that could be used for political purposes.
“If I become president of the United States, I will curb the practice we have in this country of giving union bosses an unfair advantage in contracting,” Mr. Romney said. “One of the first things that I will do – actually on Day One- is I will end the government’s favoritism towards unions in contracting on federal projects.” The audience responded with a standing ovation."
