We are the United Steelworkers, North America’s largest industrial union. We’re 1.2 million members and retirees strong in the United States, Canada and the Caribbean. We proudly represent men and women who work in nearly every industry there is.
The Local Union Executive Board with the guidance of the International Union has determined that due to the Covid-19 pandemic and restrictions in place with respect to room capacity of the MALC, we cannot safely hold an in-person nomination meeting for the 2021 Local Union Elections. On a one-time basis due solely to the above concerns, nominations for Local Union Candidates to serve in Local Union Office will be accepted in writing. Nominations of candidates for the following offices will be accepted by submitting the nomination to Jon Garrison, Recording Secretary. Nominations to be valid, must come from a member in good standing, can be hand written or typed but must include the name of the person being nominated, position they are being nominated for, and have a printed name with signature by the person making the nomination. Nominations can be submitted by mail, hand delivery to the Recording Secretary or to a designated drop box available at the in plant Union offices.
