Donald Trump and Texas Republicans are attempting an unprecedented power grab to manipulate congressional seats and influence next year\u2019s election before it even starts. Their goal is to secure enough seats to control Congress, regardless of the people\u2019s vote. If we don\u2019t act now, Trump could maintain unchecked power for another two years. Proposition 50, known as the Election Rigging Response Act, will protect the integrity of our votes and hold Congress and the President accountable, ensuring they can\u2019t disregard the will of the people. We\u2019re asking that you all support YES on Prop 50!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"723\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dc16iupat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-14-1024x723.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16025\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dc16iupat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-14-1024x723.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.dc16iupat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-14-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dc16iupat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-14-768x542.png 768w, https:\/\/www.dc16iupat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-14-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/www.dc16iupat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-14.png 1481w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The Trades Women Build Nations conference is going down this weekend&nbsp;in Chicago, Illinois, from&nbsp;September 19\u201321, 2025. The event, sponsored by North America&#8217;s Building Trades Unions (NABTU) and other unions, is the largest annual gathering of tradeswomen globally. It offers valuable opportunities for leadership growth, mentorship, networking, and skill development within unionized construction trades. The conference will include plenary sessions, workshops, a banner parade, and emphasize the importance of sisterhood and solidarity within the trades. Thank you to all the sisters that do the work every day and are an example of what resilience, dedication and commitment look like. We appreciate the value you give to our industry as well as our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dc16iupat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-15-1024x281.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16026\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dc16iupat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-15-1024x281.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.dc16iupat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-15-300x82.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dc16iupat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-15-768x210.png 768w, https:\/\/www.dc16iupat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-15-18x5.png 18w, https:\/\/www.dc16iupat.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-15.png 1128w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you ready for a night of support, encouragement and inspiration?!
