IAM& AW ORGANIZES DAKOTA, MINNESOTA AND EASTERN RR

  
Paul Wolf, Donnie Jacobs, Kevin Walton,
 Jeff Dunn, J Plooster and Chad Beck.

     The Mechanics, Apprentices and Working Foremen employed on the Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern Railroad needed a union. They came to the IAM&AW, District 19 because of our long history and experience within the rail industry as well as our undying commitment to do everything possible to ensure our members achieve the best possible Agreements and working conditions.

     With the support of the Officers of Local Lodge 112, the foresight and commitment of the Members of Local Lodge 112, the volunteers from Local Lodge 112 to participate on the Organizing Committee and the determination of the Mechanical Department Employees on the DM&E, including the leadership we found willing to step forward and take the necessary measures to make this campaign a success, the IAM&AW was certified as the duly authorized Representative of these new 104 members effective June 8, 2010.

     We welcome all of these new members into this great union and look forward to our future endeavors together.
