UAW
Local 1050 Update
Brothers and Sisters, as you all may know by now, Jeff Judson has resigned
as President of UAW Local 1050. In accordance with our by-laws, I will now
fill the role as President for the rest of the term. An election to fill the
position of Vice-President will be held as soon as possible, details will be
shared with the membership and retiree’s as soon as we have it. Once I’m
settled in, I will review the current appointed committee chairs and make
any necessary changes if needed. Again, I will update the membership once
this has happened. The Bargaining Committee has met briefly to discuss our
planning for the upcoming negotiations. We will continue to meet on a
regular basis leading up to negotiations to make sure we are well prepared.
We always ask our members to try and plan ahead as well. Be financially
responsible and try not to make any big purchases. We will strive to get a
contract that is fair and beneficial to all our hard working members.
Sometime’s this doesn’t happen without us letting the company know we are
willing to do whatever it takes to get one. So we need to hope for the best
and plan for the wost. The title I have is changing but why I’m here is not.
I will continue to represent the membership as always with the rest of our
elected officials. If anyone has any questions, please feel free to reach
out to me.
In Solidarity,
James “Gappy” Burney
