My Experience:

• President of the Rochester Area Labor Federation AFL-CIO

REGION 9 DESERVES A FIGHTER.

My plant was spun off from GM in 1999. I stood up against concessions, even when it put a target on my back. We still have work left to do on tiers. In many of our contracts, wages still don't keep up with the cost of living. Members deserve a leader with the integrity to stand up to corporate greed and clean up any remnants of corruption in our Region.

WE CAN’T GO BACK TO THE BAD OLD DAYS.

I fought for One Member, One Vote because members deserve to choose our leaders and hold them accountable. I'm running to ensure Region 9 serves our locals and our membership, not the other way around.
