Labor Quote: Andrea Blackwelder Stanley

Stanley is the IATSE 22 member who said that the display of flags on the National Mall at last week’s inauguration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris -- set up by members of her local -- “represents opportunity. Opportunity to earn a living wage and to make something beautiful to lift the hearts and spirits of a nation that is mourning so much loss and division. To me, it represents all the people of the U.S. coming together as one to be healed.”

Every day you work hard for a living and should be able to make ends meet at the end of the month without worrying if you will have a career and retirement when the time comes. Your hard work has made your Unit / Section and the Government successful, it's only fair that you should be able to expect and collect what was originally granted to you as a Federal Employee (Technician) when you were first hired and when you first enlisted as a guardsman / reservist; you should be treated fairly for the work you do. You are of value to the Government and American Taxpayer.
