The Passing of Sister Linda Kay Allen

We are deeply saddened to share with you the passing of Sister Linda Allen on November 10th, 2022. Linda was the TWU President at Zebco back in the late 90’s, She helped to fight for a better package for all the Zebco members when they were taking their product overseas. Please keep the Allen family…


NOTE:

The TWU 514 Digest will be back the week of December 9th.

We all have things to be thankful for. Our Union Membership is one item that keeps us all in the fight against Corporate Greed. Even with a Great Contract we see that the company continually interprets and distorts the original intent of our agreement.

I for one am thankful for all our Union members that keep this daily task at the top of the list.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.
