IBEW Local 3

UDR Story

  • No New Business from the Floor

    As reported in UDR 192, Brandon Perrone irked officials in Local 3 of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) by opposing their elimination of the items "New Business" and "Good of the Union" from local meeting agendas. Here he updates us on the latest events as he tries to pursue union democracy in his local.

  • In IBEW Local 3

    Brandon Perrone, journeyman electrician and union democracy advocate, ran for business manager of IBEW local 3 this past election cycle. With no slate, few campaign resources, and no organizational machinery to speak of, Perrone still managed to secure 556 votes, not too bad when only 3,800 of the 34,000 eligible members bothered to vote. Recently, Perrone raised the hackles of local officials by protesting the elimination of "New Business" and "Good of The Union" items from local meeting agendas.

The decision to close this website was freely made by me alone. Anyone who claims to have been involved with the closing of this website is mistaken or outright lying. After much soul searching I made the decision for a few reasons."
