Brothers and Sisters,
First and foremost we would like to thank the nearly 700 members that participated in yesterday’s elections, showing our local’s strength and solidary.
We will have the election results posted today on the union boards. Out of the five open seats, four of them have been won outright. However, for Vice President, none of the candidates secured the required 50% plus one vote necessary to fill the remaining position. Therefore, a runoff election is required
Runoff Election Details:
Position: Vice President
Date: Wednesday, March 6th
Location: Union Hall
Time: 5AM – 6PM
We appreciate your continued support for the remaining two candidates in the runoff. I hope to see the same strength in turn out if not more next week as we did yesterday.
We would also like to thank Rob Tiffany and the Election Committee for all the hard work they have done this past week (Shop Stewards Elections/General Elections). The Brothers and Sisters of this Committee ensures the integrity and fairness of our elections.
In Solidarity,
Jim Rugh

Brothers and Sisters,
First, we would like to thank our local politicians, Senator Bob Casey (PA), Congresswoman Mary Gay Scanlon (PA), Congressman Donald Norcross (NJ) and Congresswoman Chrissy Houlahan (PA) along with dozens of other senators and congress members for all their hard work and dedication to the UAW Local 1069 membership. In the last few months, they have been working hard on securing Ridley Park with CH-47 block II long term funding. We look forward to continuing our work with our local representatives.
At Sunday’s general membership meeting nominations were held for President, Vice President, North Side Committeeman, South Side Committeeman and Member-at-Large. Elections for all positions will be held at the Hall on Tuesday, February 27, 2024. The polls will be open at 5 AM and close at 6 PM.
Due to the recent passing of the MOA, we had to rezone 13 of the 16 Shop Stewards areas. Effected zones are posted on all UAW Local 1069 boards throughout the plant. Nominations for all 13 zones will be February 14th & 15th at the Hall from 8 AM to 4 PM. Elections for Shop Stewards will be held February 21st, 22nd and 23rd. Dates and times for all zones are to be determined.
In Solidarity
