Since 2007, <strong>Local</strong> <strong>25</strong> has represented 22 department<br />
heads and assistants that are employees with the city<br />
of Woburn. The city, with a population of 38,000<br />
residents, is located 10 miles northwest of Bos<strong>to</strong>n and sits<br />
on the edge of two major highways.<br />
The members were vic<strong>to</strong>rious after a contentious battle<br />
<strong>to</strong> organize with then-Mayor Thomas McLaughlin<br />
nearly six years ago. <strong>Local</strong> <strong>25</strong> prevailed in a Massachusetts<br />
Labor Commission election and hammered out a contract,<br />
which we are still very proud of <strong>to</strong> this day.<br />
“It was more of a fight <strong>to</strong> organize than we thought it<br />
was going <strong>to</strong> be, but we stuck <strong>to</strong>gether and made sure it<br />
happened,” said <strong>Local</strong> <strong>25</strong> Trustee Joan Corey, who works<br />
in the Assessor’s Office at City Hall.<br />
