Motion made that going forward, all future requests received from local 9 standing committees should
include plans to use their committee funds to pay for milaege and daily expenses, before requesting
furthur support from the local. If a committee does not have sufficient funds to cover the entire milaege and daily
expense cost at the time of their request, then the local may cover the remaining portion of their request.
 

The Education Committee is responsible for putting into operation the
education mandate adopted by the UAW Convention delegates.
Available to the Committee are videos, films, workbooks, handbooks, and brochures.

The Community Action Program is the political-legislative arm of Local 9.
The CAP Committee strives to keep the membership informed and encourages them
to get involved in issues and positions of public officials.
Also contacting your Congressman & State Representatives is a couple clicks or a simple phone call away.

As the labor movement goes into the 21st Century the Brewery Workers
will be in the forefront for fighting for social and economic justice for all of its members.

The Union will continue to have fierce batles to protect Medicare,Social Security,
Education,Worker's rights,Fair Trade and to protect Pension benefits for all

for working families.Local 9's active and retired members are the key to our
electoral success in the year 2007.We will be calling upon our membership to
volunteer to talk to our own members about issues in the work place,helping
in the voter registration drives,manning phone banks and working door to door
carrying our Union's messages. We will electing a new President of the United States
a U.S. Senator and our Congressional delegates from Wisconsin, as well as
state and local elections.

Collective bargaining and negotiating a fair contract for everybody is in the
forefront of the labor Movement,but if we dont protect our political rights
and support people who support us,working men and women,we will
surely lose those benefits in the hall of congress and the halls of the Govn't.

If we look back in history,the Brewing industry was voted out of
existance by the congress and senate of the United States back at the turn
of the 20th century,so we must REGISTER TO VOTE,EDUCATE OUR SELVES
AND OUR CO-WORKERS AND THEN ON ELECTION DAY,GET OUT AND
VOTE,BECAUSE IF YOU DONT VOTE-YOUR VOTE WONT COUNT.

Register at the Union office for the V-Cap checkoff so we can support our
friends in government who support our issues.You also will be eligible to
