Enrollment Form

News

Brothers and Sisters:
We have completed our transition into the new voluntary group disability policy. The new carrier is Guardian. We are fortunate to have an open enrollment for members that are not in the policy currently.

If you would like coverage (or to increase your coverage if you are enrolled in one or the other), print and fill out the attached enrollment form. Short-term is $30.45/mo and long-term is $51.00/mo. The coverage is the same as the Standard Insurance Company offered.

http://www.blet28.org/files/enrollform.pdf

Please return the form to me at:

BLET Division 28
1531 N. Santa Rosa Ave
Tucson, AZ 85712

The enrollment period is brief, so please don’t wait too long. I will be going to El Paso today, and returning, …well your guess is as good as mine.

Please feel free to call if you have trouble printing or with any other questions.

Fraternally,

Nick Johnson, Secretary/Treasurer

Take Action NOW!!

News

URGENT! Stand up to the attacks on our rights and our paychecks!

SB1484, Paycheck deductions employee authorization
SB1485, Unions; public employees; prohibitions
SB1486, Public Employees; activities, unions; compensation
SB1487, Government employees; union dues; withholding

These terrible bills are moving fast.

They have already passed out of committee and will be most likely debated in the full AZ Senate next week. We need to pull together and find solutions that work for the real issues Arizonans are facing. Join our rally to let the Arizona Legislature that attacking public workers is wrong!

To Take Action NOW by following the Arizona AFL-CIO link:
http://act.aflcio.org/c/120/p/dia/action3/common/public/?action_KEY=3542

Then please go sign our petition to protect the rights of Arizona workers:

UP’s CMTS System

News

Brothers and Sisters,

I cannot stress how important it is for each and every one of you to grant your Local Chairman access to your timekeeping information.

Currently these are the screens in UP’s CMTS System I cannot access without you ensuring permission box checked:

1) Pay History Screen

2) Time slip Inquiry Screen

3) Employee Statistics-this includes information about Vacation and PL day qualifications and trip counts.

4) Guarantee Screen

Obviously I need to have these screens in order to do research for our members.

This is all information I had access to yesterday but not today. In fact your Local Chairman has had and used this information to serve you for many years.

In Solidarity,

Ron Sprague

Local Chairman

Tapes and transcriptions of both compilations may be found at the museum, located at the Downtown Historic Depot, 414 N. Toole Ave, Tucson.

New railroad book on Tucson

Information

jsmith writes "I have run across an new book called “Tucson was a RailroadTown by William D. Kalt 111. I have not read the whole book yet, but it looks good. There are a lot of pictures of people that I fired for. It is a whos who of the peoples of the early days. You will recognize some of the family names that still work here today. There are not as many pictures of steam engines as I would like. But it is rich in pictures of people and the stories behind them. It was published in 2007 by VTD Rail Publishing. ISBN 978-0-9719915-4-5"
