Giving Thanks

As the Thanksgiving Holiday fast approaches, let us pause and give thanks to what we have.  Also  keep in your thoughts the loved ones we have lost this year and the members and their families whom might be dealing with an illness and wish them well. "For each new morning with its light, For the rest and shelter of the night, For health and food, For love and friends, For everything Thy goodness sends"- Ralph Waldo Emerson  Happy Thanksgiving from Laborers' Local 473

LABORERS' VOTE LABORERS' WIN

On behalf of Laborers' Local 473, i would personally like to thank all members of Local 473 and their families for going to the polls yesterday to elect our endorsed candidates,  President Barack Obama and United States Senator Elizabeth Warren.  Her opponent spent $26.7 million dollars to defeat her and the causes she has championed on behalf of middle class America, protection of Medicare and preserving Social Security This senatorial race was a critical win and helped increase the democratic majority in the United States Senate. But our campaign had a power that her opponents did not, YOU! 

Fall Weather Safety

In the upcoming weeks daily temperatures fluctuate greatly sometimes 20 to 30 degrees. Make sure if you are working on a project with staging/scaffolds before you work on them the next day, check the base plates to ensure that overnight frost/freezes have not shifted them to be unsafe. Work Safe. A safety message from your local union.
