Dear Metal Trades Department supporter,
Due
to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Metal Trades Department,
AFL-CIO, has made the difficult decision to cancel our upcoming October
Conference in Las Vegas. Our focus, first-and-foremost, is the safety
and health of our conference attendees and special guests. We could not,
in good conscience hold this meeting with the uncertainty surrounding
this virus. Anyone who has registered for the conference can expect a
full refund within the next 30 days. Should you have any questions,
please contact Karen Krueger, Krueger Event Management at 724.581.5259
Although
we will not be holding our Conference this year, the 71st Metal Trades
Department Convention will be held in October 2021, at Planet Hollywood
in Las Vegas. Stay tuned for details and registration information to be
released early in the new year. We can’t wait until we can all be back
together again. In the meanwhile, please stay safe and healthy. We wish
you all well and will see you next year.
In Solidarity,
James Hart
Metal Trades Department
