Sisters and Brothers,
On Thursday, June 26, 2025, we tragically lost one of our own. Brother Monty Trickey (Equipment Operator, DeLand) unexpectedly passed away. Please keep Monty's family, his friends, and our DeLand brothers in your prayers.

Sisters and Brothers,
On Saturday, June 14, 2025, System Council U8 hosted and conducted an IBEW Shop Steward Training Class. We had 15 members from across the 5 locals attend and participate. I wish to thank and congratulate those 15 individuals for giving up an entire Saturday to receive the training and I have no doubt they will serve the Local, the Council, and the Brotherhood proudly.
Sisters and Brothers,
As you are probably aware, our sister local in Indiana, 1393, recently voted down the Company's "Last, Best Offer" and overwhelmingly voted to strike over those terms. To be clear, 1393 is NOT on strike currently.
Sisters and Brothers,
Please see the attached MOU regarding changes to the Business Unit Safety Committee in the PGO department. These changes will incorporate Transmission onto the team and will require buy-in from everyone to be successful.
