Retirees Take on Woburn City Leaders
Retirees Bill Grubs (left) and Joe Conti, President of the Local 25
Retirees Chapter, prepare to hand out leaflets in front of the Woburn
City Council Chambers in early February. Members of the Retirees
Chapter helped during the recent organizing
drive for the City Department Heads.
The Organizing Department
was forced to hand out
informational leaflets at
Woburn City Hall during the organizing
drive with the Department Heads.
More than 40 Local 25 members and
retirees protested against Mayor
Thomas McLaughlin and City
Attorney David Jenkins who were
stalling the process at the Labor
Relations Commission. A total of 23
department heads and assistant
department heads will soon be able
to vote for Teamsters Local 25.
