Inland Area Unions Unite Around Secure Retirement

The SEIU 721 general membership meeting in Moreno Valley on Oct. 26 proved historic when long-time rivals shared the stage and pledged to work together. 

Representatives of SEIU 721, the Teamsters, the Laborers International Union, the Deputy District Attorney Association and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers pledged on stage to work together to preserve jobs in the Inland Empire and ensure hard-working people can retire with dignity.

“SEIU and LiUNA will be working hand in hand together to make sure the truth is out there. There is a history of divisiveness and enough culpability to go around, but that ends today.”

Stephen Switzer
Business Manager
LiUNA 777

“This is about hard-working union people working together for a decent standard of living.”
