So Long, Sisters and Brothers

I wanted to say goodbye to all of you, and say that it has been an honor and a privilege to represent all of you over the years. I met many wonderful, hard working people over these 38 years as a union representative. I couldn’t have asked for a more rewarding career.

The annual Massachusetts AFL-CIO scholarship program online application forms are no longer available, but if you registered before the December 20 deadline, be sure to visit the Massachusetts AFL-CIO scholarship website for study materials so you can ace that exam!

Time-and-a-half Bites the Dust!

The Massachusetts Legislature has approved a bill that will take away time-and-a-half pay for retail workers on Sundays and holidays, in spite of the rallies and demonstrations, and the phone calls that deluged the offices of the Senate President and the Speaker of the House. We can't take this lying down!

Join a Union!

"Workers aren't sitting quietly as the wealthy rig the rules of the economy WE BUILT. We are leading a revolution to demand what we've RIGHTFULLY EARNED."
