Be Angry!
America’s electorate is as diverse and fragmented as almost any time in our nation’s history. There are groups divided by race, ethnicity, sexual preference, culture, education, differences in views on abortion, gun rights and responsibilities, and many other issues.

Your Union Officers Updated!
Operations lost two good men to Maintenance, and we wish them all the best. Trouble is, they were both Union Stewards for Ops.

He’s certainly qualified to male that call, being a history teacher at Robert C. Byrd High School, as well as holding a Masters Degree. Greg came to our meeting to lay out the facts […]
Time To Decide!
Apologies for no new content on your union’s website lately. As much as we encourage our members participation and input, it seems many of you are reluctant to share your thoughts with your union Brothers and Sisters. Regardless, the offer still stands for anyone who would like to submit an idea, article, question, or comment. […]
Why Union Jobs Matter!
There can be no doubt that there were more than the candidates taking center stage in the 2016 Election. Ahead of all the candidates and issues was a force greater than the accumulated individual parts and pieces. That force was anger.
