Brothers and Sisters,
On Thanksgiving, we celebrate the bonds that bring us together. We put aside our differences and find strength and hope in joining together. Amidst all the forces trying to divide us, I am as grateful as ever to be a part of this Machinists Union family.
Together, we are 600,000 working men and women looking out for one another. We put everything into the jobs we do, the members we represent and the causes we champion. Many of our Brothers and Sisters dutifully postpone time with their own families so others can travel safely to gather with loved ones.
Wherever life brings you today, the Machinists Union wishes you and yours a happy, healthy and safe Thanksgiving.
In Solidarity,
Bob Martinez
International President
