Your Union, Your Voice 2022 Under Way!

In March, our union officially began another round of the Your Union, Your Voice (YUYV) effort.

We first launched YUYV in 2019 because we wanted to make sure USW members’ and retirees’ opinions were reflected at every level of our union’s work. 

We circulated a union-wide membership survey and held 170 town hall meetings. This provided a valuable opportunity for our District Directors, other elected union leaders and staff to hear what was on our members’ and retirees’ minds. The feedback you provided in your survey responses and at town halls helped shape our work since then, and continues to inform our efforts as we move further into 2022.

In recent weeks, USW Districts began holding town hall meetings in locations across the United States. The meetings are opportunities for USW members, retirees and families to once again be part of these important discussions.

Additionally, we launched another membership survey so we can know where our members and retirees stand on some of the biggest issues facing working Americans today. If you haven’t already responded to this survey, you can find it at www.uswvoices.org. 

Town hall meetings will continue into June. Look for details on this website, our social media channels and through your USW Districts.

Our common values such as fair pay, safe workplaces, a secure retirement and vibrant communities connect us as union members. Please take the time to attend a town hall meeting, participate in the survey and share this information widely throughout your local unions and with fellow Steelworkers.   

Your voice is an essential part of this effort!
