L.U. 68 (i), DENVER, CO — Greetings, brothers and sisters: As is typical, the work slowed down somewhat over the winter, but it stayed fairly steady. The work picture is expected to improve in the coming months, with a few new projects starting up.
The election season is in full gear with the caucuses and primaries coming up before the November election. There will be many opportunities to get involved and participate, such as phone banking, lit drops, postcards and door knocking. You should be able to find something that fits your schedule and personality. We can always use your help ensuring that candidates who champion labor will be elected.
By this time next year, Local 68 should be in the middle of our remodel. Expect change to be a constant for the next several months. Speaking of changes, for those who may not be aware, Business Manager Jeremy Ross has accepted a position with the International Office. Local 68 wishes Brother Ross all the best. We are sure he will do very well in his new role. Brother Zack Esquibel has been appointed to fulfill the remainder of the term as business manager. Local 68 offers Brother Esquibel all the support and assistance needed as we move forward.
We extend our deepest sympathy to the families of our recently deceased brothers and sisters: Claude F. Adams, Elwin J. Coulter, James Ferguson Jr., Robert A. Henry, Robert G. Holcomb, Ronald W. House, Phillip E. Johnston, Ronald O. Lufkin, Stanislau Mardian, Timothy D. Moser, Robert E. Nesland, Stephen R. Parsons, James M. Schlieker, John R. Sulkko, William H. Walters Jr. and Dennis R. Wamsley. Morgan Buchanan, Pres.
