The Citizen

August, 2006

The work is finally starting to pick up. Just as I mentioned in the last issue of The Citizen, make sure you have the correct address and beneficiary recorded in the Benevolent and Health &Welfare office. Keep in mind if you make changes here locally you also need to make the change with the International since we are in the BAC pension plan.

We are on a count down to November 2^nd here in Ohio. All of Labor is in need of getting as many of friends, family and people down the street to register to vote.

Help our Union and help yourself. Get people out to vote. If you would like to help, call the Union Hall (216) 361-1652.
