Bulletin #29-20

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

 

Brothers and Sisters, 

 

We want to take a moment to recognize all of you as essential workers, men and women who risk their lives every day to keep our supply chain moving. Because of you, hospitals across the West Coast and Midwest are stocked with medical supplies to ensure doctors and nurses can care for vulnerable patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. Because of you, families have the food and supplies they need to stay at home, protecting themselves and others from spreading the virus. 

 

You have all worked courageously and diligently to keep the global supply chain working.  Each and every one of you should be holding your heads high.

 

YOU ARE APPRECIATED AND WE THANK YOU

 

Over the last two months, as members of ILWU Local 13, you have demonstrated: 

 

  • YOUR ABILITY TO ADAPT AND CHANGE QUICKLY 
  • YOUR CONSCIOUS EFFORT TO PROTECT OTHERS BY WEARING YOUR FIXED FACE COVERINGS
  • YOUR ABILITY TO MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCE ALL WHILE STAYING CLOSE TOGETHER IN SPIRT AND SOLIDARITY 
  • YOUR COURAGE TO WORK SO OTHERS CAN STAY SAFE AT HOME FOR THEIR HEALTH AND FAMILIES

 

We are all living through a crisis the likes of which has not been seen in more than 100 years. There is fear, anxiety and sadness in our country right now but there is also grit, strength and, most importantly, hope. You will always be able to say that when times got tough, you rose to the occasion and kept our community and our union strong. 

Because of the actions all of us have taken, we may well have saved lives. You are building an unforgettable legacy.
