The next Union Meeting will be a regular meeting held on Wednesday, August 11, 2010 at 5:30 p.m. in the meeting hall at 2300 E. River Rd.

MOTTS FACTORY STRIKE:

For those members of IBEW Local 86 who haven't heard, the workers of the Motts factory in Williamson are on strike.  They have filed an Unfair Labor Practice with the National Labor Relations Board because the company refuses to negotiate.  Following a record profit year for the company they want to reduce wages across the board by $1.50 an hour, reduce health care and eliminate pensions.  This is a perfect example of the greed in this country and why things need to change.  Please show your support by NOT purchasing any of the following products:

     Dr. Pepper
