| Labor Day Message from Marie Lausch |
A very happy Labor Day to all of our hardworking UE 222 members!
Whether you are flipping burgers and enjoying a relaxing weekend, or hard at work doing the essential jobs that keep our country running, I am grateful for your efforts. I would like each of you to focus on how your job impacts the society you live in. Particularly in our Public Service sector, thanks can be few and far between.
Martin Luther King Jr. once said: "All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence."
You know you can count on your Union to help weather the storms that come up at your workplace, I am also taking this opportunity to express our thanks for the work you do every day.
YOU are an important part of the fabric of our society, and I appreciate all you do!
Enjoy the weekend, and Happy Labor Day!!
Marie Lausch, President, UE 222
