✊ LOCAL 32 AUXILIARY #4 STANDS WITH ILWU LOCAL 6 C&H SUGAR WORKERS ✊

For more than a century, the workers at C&H Sugar have helped keep an iconic company running. Today, approximately 100 members of ILWU Local 6 are on strike after contract negotiations broke down over proposals that would reduce retiree healthcare benefits, cut overtime pay, and undermine seniority and scheduling protections.

As union families, we understand that an injury to one is an injury to all.

Local 32 Auxiliary #4 proudly stands in solidarity with the hardworking men and women of ILWU Local 6 as they fight for a fair contract that respects the dedication, labor, and sacrifices they have given to their employer and community.

We encourage our brothers, sisters, and supporters to stand with these workers in any way they can:

• Donate to the C&H Strike Fund
• Send a letter urging C&H leadership to return to the bargaining table
(DM for a copy if interested)
• Visit the picket line and show your support (if you’re in the area)

No worker should have to choose between protecting their family’s future and accepting concessions that erode benefits earned through years of hard work.

Together we are stronger. Together we fight. Together we win.

In solidarity,
ILWU Local 32 Auxiliary Unit 4

We stand with the hardworking members of ILWU Local 23 and urge the Port of Tacoma to reject Husky Terminal’s automation and AI proposal.

This isn’t just about “technology upgrades”—it’s about real families, real paychecks, and a real community that depends on these jobs. Longshore workers aren’t just employees; they are the backbone of our local economy. When you replace skilled workers with machines, you’re not creating progress—you’re stripping stability from hundreds of households and weakening the very community that keeps this port running.

Husky Terminal benefits from publicly owned land and taxpayer-backed infrastructure. That comes with a responsibility to invest in people, not replace them. Approving this request would mean using public resources to eliminate family-wage jobs and erode union labor that has supported generations.

Automation may boost profits for a corporation, but it comes at a cost we all pay—lost jobs, reduced economic circulation, and a hit to local businesses that rely on these workers.

We’re not against progress—but progress that leaves working families behind isn’t progress at all.

Reject this proposal. Protect local jobs. Stand with the longshore workers who have built and sustained this port.

Sign the petition below and let your voice be heard - an injury to one is an injury to all.

The members of ILWU Local 23 are fighting to save their jobs from automation and A.I. Husky Terminal, which leases ship-to-shore cranes from the Port of Tacoma, is trying to replace marine clerks with job-killing tech. They just submitted what’s called a “tenant improvement request” to install...
