UAW Endorses Obama Many of you may. know by now that the UAW International Executive Board has unanimously endorsed Senator Barack Obama for President. UAW President Ron Gettelfinger said “Senator Obama supports free choice in the workplace, he will fight to delivery quality, affordable health care to every American; and he understands the need to change our trade policies so that U.S. workers and U.S. companies can compete fairly in the global economy.” Those of you who participated in this year’s Iowa Caucus will no doubt remember what an impressive job Senator Obama’s organizers did and how hard he worked himself to win the Iowa Caucus. We are lucky enough to have many of the same players back to help us deliver Iowa to Obama in the general election. Consumer Affairs Recently. l've been informed that Consumer Affairs Chairman Bob Forbes would like to take a less active role on that Committee. Bob has been retired from Fisher for 5 years and Chairman of Consumer Affairs for 21 years. He has agreed to stay on long enough to adequately train someone if we can just find a replacement for him. Now I’ve heard a lot of you remark about how. "I should get more involved." or. I wouldn’t mind helping a little more.” Well, here’s your chance. Get a hold of me at work or call the Hall (752-0685) and we’ll hook you up on a very worthwhile Committee that requires only minimal time. Picnic 2008 I’m still waiting for suggestions, comments and pledges to help at this year’s Picnic. We will have the inflatable games for the kids once again, but are always open to new ideas. |
