Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Thank you for your support that shows your belief in me, moving up as your President of this local.  It is an honor and I thank you for that.  I would like to extend my appreciation to those who helped me deliver my message.  We had a great turnout in these elections which makes me believe that our membership only wants what is best for this Union.

Union Leadership for these last three years has made me more aware of the issues that affect our struggle with these Companies.  I want to bring the union together and being more inclusive is one of my goals.  If we come together, we can be successful. Soon I will announce the chairs of the standing committees.   

Thanks to all of my supporters who worked tirelessly in my election as President of this local.  We all should thank our election committee for their dedication that resulted in a problem free election.  And I hope to meet all of the members that I have not yet met. I look forward to making you as proud of our Union as I am.

 Ron Cohagan
