We organized our PACE local union two years ago because we wanted to make our workplace, and our community, a better place.

"We as citizens need to demand our taxes and community resources can’t go to employers that refuse to deal fairly with their workers." -Shana Harvala, President Marquette County Labor Council-

While L-P's purchase of the sawmill is a change for the better, our two years fighting Dave Holli increased our determination to win a fair contract and revitalize our community.

As taxpayers, we are all stakeholders in the new K.I. Sawyer. We demand workers' rights be respected in the rapidly-growing commercial park at the former Air Force base. Only with a real voice at work can we win pay equity, job security and needed improvements in health and safety conditions.
