The topic of the 700 to 1,000-word essays will be, “Why are Labor Unions Important in the 2020s?” An impartial Scholarship Committee will judge the submissions.

“Our union’s mission has always been to lift working people so they can build better lives for themselves and their loved ones,” said District President Mike Klemm. “We are proud to offer the Adolph Stutz Memorial Scholarship as one way our District helps members and their families achieve their dreams.”

 

The District 141 Education Department is dedicated to providing our members a greater understanding of how our union works and ensuring that our Union Stewards are as highly trained as possible.

February Helping Hands: Healthy Relationships

EAP Directors:

 

Healthy relationships don’t look the same for everyone since people have different needs. Each partner’s specific needs around communication, affection, space, shared hobbies, values, and so on may change throughout life. A relationship that works in your 20s may be nothing like the relationship you want in your 50’s. Relationships that don’t align with more traditional definitions of a relationship can still be healthy.

IAM District 141, United Airlines Confirm Dates to Begin the Expedited Collective Bargaining Process.

 

In December, we reported that, based on input from the membership, we could reach an agreement with United through expedited negotiations, as was done in 2016.

We expect to reach an agreement that delivers the improvements demanded in the surveys and the contractual gains you deserve.

IAM members at United stepped up to help our airline navigate through some of the toughest years in airline industry history. Throughout these negotiations, you can rest assured that we will reiterate this fact to United Airlines management.

We will meet with the Company starting the week of February 14. We will then follow up with meeting dates for the weeks of February 28, March 14, March 28, and April 11. We will provide weekly updates following these meetings.

Thank you for your incredible support as we negotiate a contract worthy of your hard work and dedication.

In Solidarity,

Your District 141 Negotiating Committee
