A Message From Chris Griswold
Updated
On: Aug 07, 2008 (13:04:00)
The following is an excerpt from the most recent Joint Council 42 newspaper... "As you know, this is a political year and we are going full bore to elect workerfriendly politicians. Local 986 shop stewards will soon be receiving at their homes packets with voter registration materials which they will be taking to your workplace, along with a list of Teamsters who are not registered to vote. Don’t wait—seek out your steward and get the registration materials. Get some extra and take the forms home for your unregistered family members and neighbors. As you know, this country is in a recession and we need to do our part to turn it around at the ballot box. The faltering economy is affecting most Local 986 companies. Do everything in your power to protect your job by following work rules. If your job is threatened, immediately contact your shop steward to retain all your contractual and legal rights. This country is rapidly and drastically changing economically because of the anti-Union Administration in Washington and the globalization of work. We must register to vote, vote and vote smarter to protect our jobs and standards of living and work. Let me be the first to wish you Happy Labor Day as the next issue is in late September."

Yasmin Woodruff recently graduated from Saint Mary’s Academy with a perfect 4.0 GPA. John Woodruff is the proud father who is a Local 986 avionics technician at Continental Airlines. She garnered varsity letters in track & field and cross country and will study engineering at either UCLA or Cal this fall. She is most proud of being a “good role model for her siblings.” Yasmin is the recipient of this year's Joint Council 42 Scholarship given to a college bound high school student who is a dependant one of our Teamster members. She is just one of the 24 winners of this year's scholarship. If you have a child who would like to receive a scholarship to help with their college goals....look for various scholarship announcements in the International Magazine, Joint Council 42 newspaper, or the Local 986 Reporter throughout the year.
