Come Support Upcoming IATSE Solidarity Actions

Dear Union Brothers, Sisters, and Siblings,

IATSE Local 28 is small and needs some help. Please consider joining us at our next solidarity action outside the next Blazer home game. The Employer chose to give our Blazer Game key technical position jobs to managers instead of bringing in  the workers who have been out of work since March 10th, 2020. We were able to get one person  back to work. The others are still out in the cold.
