Thank you so much for the amazing opportunity of being able to attend the AFFI New Member Conference. This conference was informational and motivational. Not only did I get a more in depth look at Tier 2 pension but I now have a way better understanding of the importance of the PAC committee, and the importance of being politically motivated. I will be sharing what I have learned at this conference with members of our local and I will also express the NEED for us younger members to be involved. As they said at the Conference it just takes us to lose sight of the importance of our Great Local and our state can fall like many states have and become a right to work state. This conference made me so proud to be a Local 1544 member.

Thanks
