“I’m a third-generation member of my local. I take pride in knowing that UWUA put food on both my and my mother’s table growing up and now provides for my kids. As a local president, I know I have the full support and backing of the UWUA when I’m out there fighting for members’ wages, working conditions and, most importantly, safety. I’m proud that I never have to compromise safety and that I can count on going home to my wife and three children each day.”

Being a UWUA member allows me to do all these things, to be what my father was to me and for me to be the same for my kids. Being a UWUA members means you’re someone who is striving for greatness and always trying to bring out the best in those around you.”
