In 1891, ten electrical workers met in St. Louis, Missouri, to form the first national union for the advancement and safety of those practicing a challenging and dangerous craft. From their efforts came a legacy of pride, skill and dedication: the foundation of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. With hope and determination, they created an effective and respected union that has contributed to the well-being of men and women in all aspects of the industry for more than a century!

Please join the IBEW to urge Congress to oppose H.R. 86, the Nullify Occupational Safety and Health Administration Act (NOSHA Act). Support safety for IBEW workers by writing to your member of Congress.

Introduced by Rep. Andy Biggs of Arizona, this bill would effectively abolish the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) by dismantling the federal agency responsible for ensuring safe and healthy workplaces, setting and enforcing standards, and providing safety training. For over 50 years, OSHA has reduced workplace fatalities by nearly 63 percent and injuries by 40 percent. Simply put, gutting the responsibilities of this agency will inevitably make workers less safe.

The IBEW is the largest energy union in the world, representing 860,000 active and retired members in the United States, U.S. territories, and Canada. IBEW members work in construction and utility as line and ground workers, electricians, plant operators, foremen, field technicians, equipment operators, mechanics and substation technicians. IBEW members are on the front lines of the energy industry in the most inherently dangerous workplaces. Thanks to the Occupational Safety and Health Act, workers today have a right to refuse excessively dangerous work. Removing OSHA could eliminate this protection, disrupt the union’s ability to file unfair or dangerous labor practices at the NLRB, and leave workers vulnerable to retaliation for whistleblowing.

Please join the IBEW in recognizing OSHA’s critical importance to the safety of the American worker, by writing your member of Congress in opposition to H.R. 86, the NOSHA Act.

If you have not yet heard, Rick Harris passed away yesterday. There will be grief counselors at all service centers tomorrow for anyone who wishes to use their services. Having worked in all of our service centers, Rick was a big part of the Treasure Coast Team. Please keep his son, and each other, in your thoughts as we go through this difficult time.

Thank You

RIP Brother Harris
