Upcoming News and Information!

You all will be receiving postcards in the mail very soon along with text blasts about some very important items that will affect you and your union. First, you’ll be getting a post card informing you that our wage allocation meeting will be held at our April’s regular called Union Meeting. We will be allocating January 1, 2026’s $3.75 increase. We will collectively come up with three choices to choose from like we have always done in the past to see how our increase will be implemented. Start thinking now how you would like to see your raise be implemented and make sure you go April 17ths meeting to vote. 

In May, you will be receiving another postcard regarding upcoming nominations for our Executive Board. We need leaders in our Union and If you care about your Union, we need you to step up. This is your Union so you should be a part of it! If you interested in holding an officer’s position within our Union reach out to one of your representatives so that they can explain what each position does to see which one best fits you.

One other item I would like to bring to your attention is that June’s meeting falls on a D.D.O. At these months meeting we will be discussing how we will be handling the situation. As soon as our Executive Board decides on how they want to handle that we send a text blast to let everyone know when June’s meeting will be held.

You all should’ve received a wallet calendar with all the Holidays, DDOs and Meeting Nights in a holiday card from the Union staff in December. If you did not, please contact Natalie at the Hall and we will get you one. We also have calendar logbooks at office if you want one. Please see below for Local 12’s upcoming important dates:
