Right To Work Is Wrong
📢We're gearing up for another Right to Work (RTW) legislation battle in New Hampshire. If you're unsure what this anti-worker bill entails, take a moment to watch this video and share it on your feed.
Since the 1980s, this anti-worker bill has been defeated time and time again, thanks to bipartisan coalitions, union efforts, and YOU, our members.
Now, it’s time to stand united once more. Visit https://gencourt.state.nh.us/house/committees/remotetestimony/default.aspx to take action and help protect New Hampshire’s workers, businesses, and future.

Workforce Star Award: Local 1302 Jacob Moreau
Local 1302 member, Jacob Moreau, was recently honored by the Naval Submarine League as a recipient of the Workforce Star Award. The award recognizes individuals who have been identified as exemplary contributors to the construction, maintenance, or repair of submarines or to their individual infrastructure.
Moreau began his career at General Dynamics Electric Boat in 2016 working to install exterior treatments to the submarines. After completing his apprenticeship, he became a lead linesman and was appointed a union steward. He works closely with the Optical tooling group to take precise measurements on the ship for critical components.
Moreau is currently working on the new Columbia class of submarines, the most vital program in the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). He is the summer internship co-coordinator working to recruit and mentor young men and women interested in the trade.
Moreau was nominated for the national award by Local 1302 Business Representative Jerry Renaud.
Congratulations, Brother!

As November comes to a close, we reflect on a month dedicated to honoring our member-veterans, and we’re proud to share Brother Charlie Payne’s journey, a true union success story.
Brother Payne is a retired member of Local 336 and its current President. He has devoted 32 years to the Brotherhood and his path reminds us of the power of solidarity and opportunity that the union brings.
After high school, Charlie joined the @usarmy and after transitioning out, he worked in non-union construction for several years. Feeling undervalued and underpaid, a visit from a union organizer changed his life. He drove to the union hall in Western Massachusetts and says he’s “never looked back.”
Charlie rose from journeyman to steward to president of his local to business representative for the council, witnessing the profound impact of the Carpenters union along the way. As he puts it:
“The Carpenters union has opened so many doors for me, so many opportunities to grow as a carpenter and as a person. It has benefited me tremendously. I saw people go from homelessness to homeowners. And people’s lives change because of the Carpenters union.”
Thank you for your service to our nation and your unwavering dedication to our union, Brother Payne. Enjoy your well-deserved retirement!

🇺🇸Meet Jeff Jameson, a proud @marines and member of Local 328 for 23 years.
Jeff shares:
“The camaraderie in the union is unbelievable—everybody [welcomes you with] open arms, brothers and sisters.”
Having grown up doing carpentry alongside his grandfather and brother, Jeff says he always “loved it.” When he transitioned out of the military, his uncle—a union carpenter—told him about the union, and it’s been a rewarding journey for him ever since.
Brother Jameson has been a steward for 13 years, and a council delegate for the past three.
“The ladder is still going up. Anytime I have a question, open arms. I can call anybody and ask them for advice. The phone’s always on. It’s just a great community in the union. I’m proud to be a military vet in the Carpenters union.”
Thank you, Jeff, for your service to our country and your dedication to our union!

Wage Theft Allegations Against Tufts Builders
🚨🚨Wage Theft Allegations Against Tufts University Builders!
Construction workers this week publicly claimed they have been victims of wage theft. They say that they are owed wages by their employer, Dynamic Interiors, for several weeks worth of work.
Dynamic Interiors was hired for the project by Bowdoin Construction. Bowdoin and Dynamic Interiors have also been hired by Tufts University.
The Carpenters union has been warning Tufts to take care in selecting contractors for construction work on campus to avoid just these types of incidents.
That effort continues, with carpenters continuing to encourage people to AskTufts.com!

This week, we proudly continue honoring our member veterans. 🇺🇸
Meet Brother Erik Stevens, a dedicated member of Local 336 for over 20 years. He serves on the local’s Executive Board, is a council delegate, a steward, and a part-time instructor for the @nascarpenterstrainingfund.
Before joining the Carpenters union, Brother Stevens served in the @marines for 8 years, completing two tours in Iraq.
In his own words:
“Being in the Carpenters union, the benefits are just fantastic. I could have never imagined having the retirement that I’m going to have before without being in the Carpenters union. The pay scale is just phenomenal and all the education we get out of it. Unlimited amount of training and it’s all free. Fantastic!”
Erik also draws a strong connection between his experience in the Marines and his work with the Carpenters union, noting the camaraderie and brotherhood that have been essential in both parts of his life.
Thank you, Brother Stevens, for your service to our country and your dedication to our union.

During National Apprenticeship Week, we proudly honor our veteran-apprentices and the impact they’ve made in our union and the trades.
After transitioning out of the military, Brother Zachary found a new brotherhood in the Carpenters union, one that’s been just as supportive as his time in the military. The skills, the trade, and the camaraderie continue to shape his journey.
“The [Carpenters] union benefited my life greatly because when I left the military, I was a little confused about what I wanted to do with my life. The union grabbed me and was like, ‘Hey, you’re gonna do this!’ I just learned the skills, learned the trade, met the people.”

From Making Pizzas to Making Buildings🍕🏗️🔨🏨
Four years ago, @carpenters_local_277 Brother Darius Wright was working at a pizza shop in Utica, NY when he overheard a conversation about the Carpenters Union recruiting—and it set him on a whole new path.
Guided by Local 277 Business Representative Deli Vargas, Darius joined the apprenticeship program, and after four years of hard work and dedication, he’s now a skilled union carpenter helping to build New York’s future. Congratulations, Brother Darius, on turning opportunity into achievement!
