| Local 876 Membership
Committees
Local 876 members can help strengthen their union in an
area of interest to them and participate in charting the
course of their union’s future by becoming involved in
one or more of the new committees established by the
union.
“We know not everyone is interested in
or able to serve as a steward or on a bargaining or
organizing committee,” Roger Robinson, Local 876’s
president, said. “The new committees will give members
the chance to become active in their union in an area of
interest to them and determine how the local can best
use our resources to benefit the membership.”

Political Leadership Committee
The actions of politicians on every level effect Local
876 members and their families in many ways, every day.
The Local 876 Political Leadership Committee will work
to ensure the actions of politicians have a positive
impact on the membership. Members of this committee will
have the opportunity to be involved in many activities
including; contacting elected officials, speaking out on
workers’ issues, volunteering on campaigns, and
attending political events.
Women’s Committee
As union members, the women of Local 876 do not have to
worry about not receiving the same pay and benefits as
their male coworkers, but like all working women, they
have concerns and face situations that are uniquely
female. The members of the Local 876 Women’s Committee
will help identify the issues of utmost concern to their
fellow working women and assist the union in addressing
these issues. From
Youth Committee
Workers in their teens and twenties represent the hope
for the future. The Local 876 Youth Committee will give
younger members an avenue to have their voices heard and
design new opportunities for these members to enjoy the
union advantage.
Community Services
Committee
Organized labor has a strong history of helping its
members and their communities, especially during tough
times. Members of the Community Services Committee will
continue this great tradition by learning how community
agencies can assist their coworkers, and determine how
the union can help strengthen their communities.
Committee members will be involved in a variety of
activities, have the opportunity to attend training
seminars, and play key roles in fundraising and
volunteer events.
Membership
Services Committee
Local 876 is always looking for ways to increase the
benefits of union membership. The Membership Services
Committee will assist the union in achieving this goal
by identifying areas where the union can secure
membership discounts and other savings. The Committee
will also determine other special events and outings the
union can host to provide members and their families
with free or reduced cost entertainment. Committees will
meet on an as needed basis. Members will be able to
determine their level of involvement on each committee.
