✨WHAT DOES A UNION EXECUTIVE BOARD DO?✨
Our elected Executive Board Members set our union’s vision and goals, encouraging us to use our leadership potential for the good of all workers. United, working families achieve better wages, benefits, & respect on the job.
Our hearts are with the Longview community following the tragic explosion at the local paper mill.
