MLPA Family,

During the MLPA Conference in Ottawa, IL back in 2023, the Conference used their "Explore Day' to visit our Brothers and Sisters at Chicago Assembly UAW Local 551 to show them support in their "Stand up Strike". The video content was captured by MLPA Executive Board member Sister Vanda Moore.

MLPA Family,

On behalf of the Midwest Labor Press Association Executive Board, we would like to thank all of you who attended our 2026 MLPA Conference!

Starting today, the real work begins. It is time to utilize the skills you developed last week and implement them at your Local going forward.

Going forward, we will be communicating with our attendees through email and this Facebook site so we can provide the best possible experience in 2027. Labor communications is alive in well because of hard working members like you!
