 As
our Website grows and improves, we'll use it to get the word out on
Union activity in our area, our state, and our country, and we hope it
will help to create a better sense of community among our members.
It is, and will remain, a "Living Document".

Don't forget to reserve the date for our June
12th, 2008 Meeting
on Thursday, June 12th, 2008, at the usual
time of 7:00 PM, at the Plumbers' and
Pipefitters' Local Union 773 Hall at 30 Bluebird Road, South Glens
Falls - in Moreau, but continue to check the Directions
page for new maps and more info on our
future meeting places.
The Presentation
on Area Organizing that we have been trying to get rescheduled is still
on hold while the Organizers from CSEA
who were visiting to present information regarding campaigns in our area
are back out in the field working, but we will be having our regular agenda,
whiich includes reports on our newest C.O.P.E. plans as well. We
will be considering how best to support Labor-friendly government in the
future.
News Channel 13's Union Contract
has been ratified, and other Union's are being negotiated, and Labor still
has a lot of non-union workplaces to Organize -- and a lot of workers who
would
like to be Unionized, but are afraid of losing their
jobs if they try to exercise their rights.
All Union Locals can and should have full
representation in Labor Councils regardless of other affiliation, so if
you have any questions, come and ask.
Do plan to attend our Meetings and forums, and since we welcome extra visitors
to our Meetings from Labor even if they are not voting Delegates, please
feel
free to bring along some of your other Members as well.
