Four years later, she was elected Grievance Committee Representative for DTW Reservations. Since 2012, Andrea’ has also served in several capacities at District 141, as Auditor, Educator, and was elected Vice President-at-Large in 2018.
IAMAW District 141 President and Directing General Chair, Mike Klemm announced the promotion, and said, “I am pleased to announce the appointment of Andrea’ Myers as Assistant General Chair. Andrea’ has distinguished herself as a strong and steady leader, a talented educator, and a dedicated unionist. I congratulate Andrea’ on her newest accomplishment and I am confident she will continue to excel as a fair and powerful representative for our members.”
