Brothers and Sisters,

We are proud to welcome our newest permanent members—a change in employment status made possible by an important, though largely unheralded, provision in the recently ratified agreement.

For many of these members, this transition came just in time. Their temporary status was nearing its end, which would have meant the loss of their jobs. Instead, they now have the stability and security that come with permanent employment.

For our union and our membership, securing and protecting good union jobs remains a top priority. This positive outcome is one of the many reasons the Executive Board supported the agreement.
