Highway Work

Dear brothers and sisters,

	 

I am asking you today to provide written testimony on your experiences as a highway worker. I need testimony from all our members on the hazards of working on a major highway. Director Jonathan Gulliver provided the legislation and public safety officials with testimony yesterday and he needs “Back Up”.

Please call the office today and let’s show these politicians how powerful the Teamsters can be when we all come together. Please get involved with the blue light safety initiative.

Thank you,

Brother George
