Transcript: Executive VP Angel Feliciano

To all of our Members, you have moved the giant!

Your solidarity – your strength – has sent a clear message: WE WILL NOT STEP BACK!

As of Tuesday morning, we will be back to work with a contract extension preserving all of our rights and benefits.  Bargaining is scheduled to resume a week later.

I cannot emphasis how proud I am to be a member of this local and to help lead it.

Every member, whether he or she has 1 year or 40, should be proud.  You have earned your stripes; you are part of the STRIKE OF ’11.

You have helped spark the labor movement, but our fight is not over.

BE CAREFUL – BE VIGILANT – BE STRONG!
