One job should be enough: Support

OPEIU members in Nashville

March 12, 2019 - Our sisters and brothers at OPEIU Local 182 in Nashville need your help! They are fighting for a fair contract at the United Steelworkers Pension and Benefits fund (PIUMPF). More than 50% of the members who work for the fund need to work a second job and/or take in roommates to afford living in Nashville. 50% report that if they did not have a spouse, they would also need to take a second job.
​Click here and sign this petition in support of Local 182 members’ struggle.

Rally to End the Government Shutdown

Workers from all across the area rallied on Thursday, January 10th and marched to the White House to end the government shutdown. Politicians and labor leaders joined impacted workers to pressure GOP congresspeople and to put people back to work.

A reminder that the AFL-CIO has imposed a contract on Local 2 members in their downtown office. Their contract includes forced furloughs, much like what the government is doing now, and much like what the AFL-CIO claims to rally against. We will not back down on this issue. Wear your Local 2 shirts to show the AFL-CIO that we will not stand for those kinds of management tactics.
