ILWU-Hawaii V.P. Kreutz sends Mahalo to Donors

Aloha, Local 1000 Executive Board and Members!  Just FYI, International ILWU V.P.-Hawaii, Sam Kreutz, has spent the last several days assisting cargo distribution and hotel accommodations for relief efforts on Maui.  He wants to express his thanks to those who are contributing to relief efforts. There are thousands of ILWU members and families in the Lahaina area, as well as Kaanapali, Kapalua, Kihei, and Upcountry Maui.  V.P. Kreutz is himself a resident of Maui so he feels great appreciation for all the support for his home island.  Mahalo!

Image
ILWU Local 1000 Political Action ILWU Local 1000 officers, trustees and members attended several committee meetings to support bills that would improve pay and work conditions for Caregivers.  At least Two bills supported by the ILWU that would help Caregivers were approved by all committees. On the last day to consider bills before becoming a law, the House Representative in charge of the bills failed to include a money appropriation in the bills, and the bills that would help Caregivers died.
