A Message From
Secretary-Treasurer
Darren O'Neil
Good Job Creation
Working families have shown incredible courage by fighting for their livelihoods, and it is time for Congress to step in and help out. It is not just about tax cuts, it is about job creation. It is not just about individual job creation, but large-scale job creation. The kind that supplies American fair trade companies with good contracts. Not the kind that rewards cheap labor, and companies with poor track records in workplace safety, low wages, little or no job security, and the like. We need good job creation, not just job creation. The Big Banking days tanked our economy and left the average American paying the bills of the biggest risk takers. America should focus on investing in rebuilding the crumbling infrastructure that is our countries highways and railroad systems.
Your Local Union and the International Brotherhood of Teamsters continually speaks to all State and Federal Elected Officials demanding Good Job Creation, please do the same and contact your Elected State and Federal Officials requesting the same of “Good Job Creation.”
Fraternally,
Darren L. O'Neil
Secretary-Treasurer

President’s Corner
Thought for the Month

John Felts ; President
Question: What Makes A
Union Strong
Answer: YOU do; each of you, and all of you.
Your Union’s strength comes directly from the unity of its members; workers sticking together on issues that affect the workplace. And that means not only supporting other co-workers within your own bargaining unit with their specific issues even though it may not appear to directly impact you or your job classification, but it also means supporting and upholding the fundamental principles of unionism in general. Look for the Union label. Shop Union stores. Buy Union products. Respect sanctioned picket lines. Support your Union Brothers and Sisters on their issues so that they will be inclined to support you on your issues.
