Glaziers Local 767

Check out the New DC 16 STAR website today!

Wage theft and misclassification happens everywhere, including here in our own backyard. We must fight back tooth and nail against business practices like these. This under cuts our industry as a whole and decimates the area standards and working conditions that we have fought so hard to achieve!

Glaziers Local 767, Please be on the lookout for a postcard arriving to your homes within the next couple days. Please reach out for you member ID number that will be needed to sign up for the mobile member app or check the sticker on the back of your dues card.

Thank you to all of those who have served and are currently serving. Without you we wouldn’t have the freedom and opportunities that we all enjoy. #veteransday

Congratulations!

Americans deserve a fairer and more just tax system that works for all of us rather than just the rich.

Regardless of your party affiliation, Union Busting is detrimental to wages! Your wages!

Today we remember and honor the brave heroes who sacrificed all for our country and our freedoms. #MemorialDay2020 #HonorThem #WeAreUnion
