UFCW Local 1994 Strong Public Services Build Strong Communities! http://www.mcgeo.org Moviegoers lined up to see Tom Hanks as Forrest Gump. George W. Richard Nixon died.

In South Africa, black voters waited hours in line for the opportunity to cast ballots for the first time. They elected Nelson Mandela as their president. Bush became governor of Texas. Parris Glendening was elected Marylandโ€™s governor. Doug Duncan replaced Neal Potter as Montgomery County Executive. Wayne Curry was elected County Executive in Prince Georges. UFCW Local 1994 MCGEO opened its doors with a small staff and a bundle of legal bills.
โ€œIn those first days, it was just Bob Stewart and me, part-time employee Dave Blackwell and a temporary receptionist, the phones constantly ringing and battles raging all around us,โ€ recalls Gino Renne who has served as the Localโ€™s leader since its inception. Over the next two decades, Local 1994 would grow into an organization with a reputation as an aggressive fighter for the rights of government workers. Today, Local 1994 is staffed with 14 full-time employees and still accumulating a growing list of firsts.
-The first union in the state of Maryland to successfully sue the employer to block a privatization plan.
-The first to pass a binding arbitration provision as impasse resolution in a public employee collective bargaining law.
-The first deferred compensation plan for covered workers.
-Continually leading the way in negotiated wages.

Today, we remember and honor the men and women who ran toward danger on September 11, 2001.

Their courage reminds us of the strength of working peopleโ€”those who protect our communities, care for others, keep our public services running, and step up when they are needed most.

We honor the memory of those we lost, the resilience of the survivors, and the families and communities forever changed by that day.

As union members, we carry that spirit of solidarity forward. We will never forget those who made the ultimate sacrifice, and we will continue fighting for the safety, dignity, and respect that every worker and every family deserves.

**In solidarity, we remember.**

Our MCGEO family takes care of one another.

Many of you know Melissa from the Montgomery County Public Libraries. She and her family recently experienced the unimaginableโ€”a devastating house fire that destroyed their home and left them with the difficult task of rebuilding their lives. Thankfully, everyone is safe, but they lost so much in the fire.

If you're able, please consider making a donation to help Melissa and her family get back on their feet. Every contribution, no matter the amount, can make a meaningful difference. And if you can't donate, sharing the fundraiser is another powerful way to help.

โค๏ธ Donate here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-melissa-rebuild-after-devastating-fire-t3s2y

Thank you for showing the compassion and solidarity that make our union family so strong.

Our family is asking for your support after my sister, Melissa, experieโ€ฆ Chardae Buchanan needs your support for Help Melissa Rebuild After Devastating Fire
