Union Meeting

I would like to thank everyone who attended the December union meetings held on the 16th. We had an almost 50% increase in attendance from the November meetings, which is a fantastic result. I would like to challenge every GMP Local #17 member who reads my blog to find someone at the plant who has never attended a meeting and get him or her to attend the next union meeting on January 27th. Spread the word about the union meetings. The union meeting is the heart of any union. It is the time that the leadership conducts the business of the union and a chance for the union officers to inform the membership. It is also a time for the membership to inform the officers about what is happening at the plant, and to hear your ideas about how to solve these issues and problems. It is through union meetings that we build solidarity. I would encourage everyone to spread the news and let’s double the attendance again at the next meeting!
