Chairmans Letter
In the Local 677 Retiree November membership meeting the membership made a motion to provide an added amendment to the UAW Constitution to protect retirees from having the UAW negotiate away any of our pension benefits as has happened in the pass.
It is a follows-
WHEREAS THE UNION (UAW) AND ITS REPRESENTATIVES WILL NOT OR WILLINGLY ENGAGE IN OR BARGIN AWAY ANY RETIREE BENEFITS (VESTED OR NON-VESTED) THAT EXISTING RETIREES RELIED UPON WHEN DECIDING TO RETIRE, WITHOUT THE VOTE AND APPROVAL OF THE RETIREES AFFECTED BY SUCH COLLECTIVE BARAINING.
We had a great turnout of 126 people and had Aetna and CDS, Or administartors for the Veba fund, on hand the answer any questions to the health palnd and the running of it.
Amalgamated President Scott Wolf said production of the new 6700 model has started. Now, till the end of the year, building 2/day is planned. 4000 trucks were shipped during the third quarter and resulted in no change in market share. A suit has been filed with the NLRB over Volvo’s intent to build in Mexico. Our amalgamation now includes five companies: Mack, Americold, Westport Axle, BMW, and Krise.
Bingo is in full swing every Wednesday at 12 PM. We have eats and drinks and Bingo every Wednesday and our monthly meeting is the 2nd Wednesday of the month start at 1 PM. Bring your guest along.
Attention members, our free legal services will be discontinued at the end of December. If you want to use it do not wait. It was negotiated away by our negotiators in the last contract. The number to call for a reference number is 1-800-821-6400.
