Dear Fellow Union Members and Friends,

I am a strong John McCain supporter. John McCain has proven himself throughout his lifetime as a man who will fight for this country and can be trusted and relied upon. He is not George Bush!

I want to vote for John McCain

Unfortunately I will be voting for Barack Obama this November.

As a union member for 27 years I have no choice. Our pensions and annuities, also our self funded healthcare, that we and present/past retired members have built throughout the years of hard work must be protected .

That protection can only be achieved through steady contributions of the current and future working force. We cannot keep this steady decline in union membership from happening , it’s our spreading cancer and we have to stop it.

Barack Obama is willing to push the “Free Choice Act” into law, which will give us unions a great organizing tool so desperately needed. Barack also promises to build and repair Americas infrastructure creating plenty of construction jobs.

I don’t believe Barack has the experience or the achievements of a John McCain. But I do believe that Barack Obama has the potential to be a great President, let’s find out and give him a term in the white house ,while at the same time ,we will be take taking a first step in fighting this spreading cancer of our declining membership.

Yours truly,

Robert Picardo

Friends,

Today is the first day of a weeklong online competition to determine which of 10 Congressional candidates will receive the support of Senator Russ Feingold's "Progressive Patriots" fund. Today, I'm asking you to use 30 seconds to help our grassroots campaign in the easiest way possible. Taking just a moment could be the difference for Eric Massa in our razor thin race.

A generation ago America put a man on the moon – but today we can no longer be assured of crossing bridges safely or being safe from failing dams or levees. Sign the petition to Build America and help collect signatures -

Martin Luther King Jr. began with the Montgomery bus boycott involving Rosa Parks. He began to lead at the age of 26 and was assassinated  at the age of 39. He was truly gifted and had vision at such a young age.
I truly see this leader as one of the Greatest.

Important Message From Your General President

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

I am writing today with an important request. Next Monday
morning will mark a historic first for our union and all unions.

The Democratic Presidential Candidates will be appearing at our
Leadership Conference in Chicago and every LIUNA member will be
able to see and hear the candidates through a national live
webcast.

Help spread the word about the webcast by distributing the
flyers which were mailed to your local union hall. You can
download the flyer at
http://liunaactionnetwork.org/ct/871pJh51uq8F/ and you can get
the latest details about the webcast at
http://liunaactionnetwork.org/ct/i11pJh51uq8J/.

By spreading the word, we can help make sure presidential
candidates pay attention to the issues that matter and feel the
power of LIUNA members.

Sincerely,

Terence M. O'Sullivan
