Veterans Committees

The Veterans’ Committees stand as a tribute to the men and women who have served our nation with honor and distinction. Committed to recognizing and supporting our veterans, we foster a sense of camaraderie and offer a platform for IBEW members who have proudly served in the military.

The work of the committees is both to foster a sense of camaraderie and community among veterans already in the IBEW, but to do the hard work of extending the opportunity of unionism and the electrical trades to even more veterans as they leave their service to their countries.

Join us in celebrating service, camaraderie, and commitment as we continue to strengthen the bonds that unite our IBEW family.
