Our sisters and brothers who work at the United Steelworkers' Benefit Fund are asking for our help in their fight for fair wages. Many who work for the Fund are forced to work second jobs because they are not paid what they are worth.
We believe one job should be enough: all working people deserve to be paid a fair wage.
Show solidarity with Local 182 members who are fighting for fairness in Nashville, Tennessee, by signing their petition. In doing so, you make it clear that, as an OPEIU member, you are standing shoulder-to-shoulder with your sisters and brothers in their fight for a fair contract.

After a unanimous vote by the AFL-CIO Executive Council to call for Gov. Ralph Northam’s resignation, AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka issued the following statement:
Gov. Northam’s racist actions of the past—and his behavior of the past few days—cut against everything we stand for. He has shown himself not to be the leader Virginia and America need, and he must resign immediately.
This protracted exercise has been a painful, embarrassing trial for Virginians and the country as a whole. Gov. Northam’s refusal to step aside is only further deepening the wounds he has inflicted.
We call on Gov. Northam to change course and accept the only path that will allow us to heal and move forward together.
Applications now are being accepted for the 2019 OPEIU educational scholarships, and all members are encouraged to apply. Full details, rules and applications can be found at OPEIU.org under the Member Resources/Union Benefits link, as well as on the OPEIU app*.
