Brothers and Sisters:

Subject: IAM&AW/WYMAN GORDON Update

Your elected contract negotiating team, Keith Stanberry, Ector Ruiz, Jason Calhoun, Able Nuncio, Local Lodge 15 President Byron Williams and your chief negotiators, Grand Lodge Representatives Brothers Dave Porter and Tony Blevins met for negotiations again today with Wyman Gordon.

The parties have discussed and exchanged proposals and counter proposals regarding the Economics package. The Union is working to get you the best overall package we can for you to vote on. Please ensure you come to vote on your future.

We are being told by the company, many of our members are going to the company and discussing what you would like to see in the contract regarding coverage and they are changing their negotiating strategy day to day from what your committee is proposing based on our discussion with you. Negotiations are worked through at the table; anything agreed to on the shop floor with any individual supervisor is Illegal and non-enforceable according to the National Labor Relations Act.

Again, we thank all the members who have stepped forward to man all the committees as requested and continue to get your name to your Executive Board or Sub Committeeman immediately. If you have not completed your application for membership, please contact your sub-committeeman immediately if you wish to attend the ratification meeting, have the right to have a voice on your future and a vote.
