A huge thank you to everyone who came out to the COMET (Construction, Organizing, Membership, Education, Training) class over the weekend!

14 members attended the training, and Local 23 was able to have, for the first time, an English class and a Spanish class. As a result of the training, 11 members signed up for the Organizing Committee.

“We couldn’t be happier with the turnout on Saturday,” said Joshua Moss, Local 23 Vice Chairperson. “It’s great to see so many members engaged with their union, and learning more about organizing. This is how we grow and strengthen our union. Big things happening in Columbus!”
