Local 2-987

We are the United Steelworkers Local 2-987. And if you are a current member reading this, that includes you too. The First Monday of every month we hold a meeting down at the AFL-CIO hall, located at 486 W Western ave, Muskegon, mi, 49442. Every member in good standing with the union is welcome! Your local representatives are good resources for questions about your rights, your contract, and your safety. Utilize us. Ask the questions if you have them. Along with the updates posted to the communications board, we will keep this site updated with the meeting notifications as well, under the union meeting tab.
