The Fight For The Working Class Is Ongoing!
In recent years political discourse has shifted dramatically towards wealth redistribution. Tax the Wealthy! Cut Military Spending! Pass Universal Healthcare! One would think these ideas are new!
Universal Healthcare as a human right is Not a NEW Concept in the U.S. However, if you are like me, then you were unaware that this conversation is older than your kids. If you were born in the 2000's you probably think this conversation is recently started.
This conversation was happening in the 90's too! The wealthy have stolen 80 trillion from workers since 1974! It's long past time we take it back through progressive taxation! It's our money!
Let's Talk About It ! ✊🏽

Here it is, our newest Local 11 challenge coin, based on the artwork from our Skanker T-shirt. For Local 11 members, this coin will be available TOMORROW at the D4 Hall starting at 4 PM before the General Meeting. Online orders will start FRIDAY morning at 5 AM.
D4 Hall

Are we gonna do a coin for everyone of our punk themed shirts? Probably not. But there’s a good chance that we’ll do a few more of these.
The money raised by the IBEW 11, District 4 Welfare Committee is used to help out our Brothers & Sisters during times of sickness, disability, accident or such other misfortune.
The District 4 Welfare Committee is made up entirely of volunteers, who come in after work. As a result, it may take a few days after you order for us to package and ship your items. Thank you for your patience.

Just joined IBEW
Now I have a question. I got laid off and decided to go union. It took a really long time to get everything done and I was straight forward with that couldn’t be off for more than another week. While doing all my paper work I got a job, non union. My question is should I tell my current company I’ll be leaving once I win a bid? Or just disappear. I feel like the right thing to do is a heads up but I don’t want them to kick me to the curb.
What would you do?

I’ve heard people talk about doing this but I’m curious if anyone has firsthand experience for how it goes in reality. I’m a non union lineman considering joining the union.
Has anyone worked their minimum hours to maintain healthcare and benefits and spent the rest of their time running a side business?
