Brothers, Sisters, Family, and Friends,

Recent events have highlighted the consequences of inadequate staffing—for the public, our members, and for the safety, reliability, and emergency response capabilities to the public we serve.

USW Local 12775 is launching a non-partisan service-territory-wide petition calling for stronger NIPSCO staffing, improved reliability, and greater storm and emergency-response readiness. You all have firsthand experience on the subject.

We are taking this message beyond the Company. We have already and continue to reach out to community leaders, mayors and county officials, state legislators, federal representatives, and the Governor to build public support and demand action. We need your help doing this.

Sign the petition. Share it with your family, friends, neighbors, and others in your community. Help people understand how important this is.

This is about our livelihoods, our safety, and that of our communities. We need the State to take action. We need the public's support. And we need YOU to help drive this home!

In Solidarity,
USW Local 12775

From the desk of Director Mike Millsap:
Bargaining at USS and Cliffs still moving slowly with not little progress. I suspect we will see movement this week with a lot of late nights of bargaining, as there will be a push to get done. We will not give in to their ridiculous proposals nor will we be pushed into an agreement.
Stay united. We need your support. Watch for our text messages for updates and talk to your cat team coordinators.
Especially at USS DO NOT PAY ATTENTION TO DAVE BURRITT AND HIS TEAM's BU****IT UPDATES, AS THEY ARE DECEPTIVE.
If you want to send him a message block his text messages and get off his app.

From the desk of Director Mike Millsap:
We prefer to bargain in good faith on behalf of our members, but we are prepared to go to battle with USS and Nippon to make Dave Burritt live up to his committments and promises to our members.
We want fair wages AND JOBS FOR ALL OF OUR MEMBERS. Our members made USS/Nippon what it is today and what it will be in the future, they deserve SECURED good paying jobs.
We want no concessions on our healthcare benfits which they promised.
We demand safety protections for our members.
We will not go backwards so in the future USS/Nippon can make higher profits.
Oh Dave Burritt clains wants to work together with the employees. He says he wants a partnership and to take care of his employees so badly he proposed to take the partnership language out of our labor agreement so he does not want to meet with us to discuss the business of the company. More of David Burrit's deception.
