We asked some of the active members of LL1746 why they like having a union. Here are some of their answers:

“I like the unity of being in a union. Like they say, ‘United we stand, divided we fall.’” – Linnea Thrall

“When you belong, you never stand alone.” – Juan Gelabert, former LL President

“Without a union, you stand on your own. With a union, you’ve got brothers and sisters to stand by you. You don’t always win your fights, but your chances of winning are a lot better when you stand together.” – Mark Becker, Safety Steward.

“Unionists stick together and support each other through thick and thin, in good times and bad times. Together we can fight for equality for all.” – Rodney Conologue,  Chief Safety Rep. (ret.)

“With a union, you are a family rather than the boss pitting one employee against another. Everybody is treated equally.” – Howard Haberern, LL 1746 Community Services (ret.)

“The union ensures fair working conditions, with better wages and benefits.” – Dana Erickson (ret.)

“Try it, you’ll like it! I know some of you guys in non-union shops, and you really need a union!” – Jose Carranquinha. (ret.)
