Workers deserve honest leadership

Our 4 Core Pillars
What We Stand For
1) Elected Stewards: We are ending the era of appointed political armies. Under our leadership, you will have the democratic right to elect—and recall—the shop stewards who represent you on the floor.
2) Member Empowerment: Knowledge is power. We will transform the hall into a center for contract workshops and LMRDA rights training. An educated rank-and-file is an unstoppable force.
3) One Member One Voice: No member should ever be locked out of their union democracy. We will implement secure, accessible voting protocols so road drivers, shift workers, and everyone in between can cast their ballots safely.
4) Accountability: Business Agents work for You, not the other way around. Any union official who uses slurs, threatens members, or weaponizes representation will be terminated on day one.

The March 12th Case:
Legal Update & Witness Call
March 12th Case Update: The Fight for Our Bylaws
Following the unconstitutional voter suppression and chaos at the March 12th general membership meeting, formal federal charges have been filed against the Local 631 Executive Board. We have bypassed the local’s rigged kangaroo court and submitted our master evidentiary file—including video, audio of racial slurs, and witness accounts—directly to the federal independent oversight judges in New York.
We have the evidence to win, but your voice makes the case ironclad
Even if you have already spoken to us, we need to document every single member affected by our leadership’s tactics. If you fall into any of the three categories below, we need your statement immediately
March 12th Statements Needed
1. If you attended the March 12th vote and witnessed the chaos, intimidation, or suppression firsthand.
2. If you knew about the vote but could not attend due to your shift, driving routes, or scheduling conflicts.
3. If you did not know about the vote at all because the local failed to properly notify the membership.
Fuel the Movement: Support Members First 631
Running a fearless, rank-and-file reform campaign requires resources. Every dollar we raise goes directly toward printing flyers, launching text alerts, buying campaign shirts, and making sure every single member in Local 631 knows their rights before election day.
