HSE Committee Report
February 2015
Tuesday, February 24, 2015: fumes in the HQ building
At 9:00 AM the lobby smelled like diesel. It was probably from a furniture delivery truck that idled at the loading dock. We need to remind the garage attendants, Matt Becker and the International of the 5 minute limit on idling enacted by Allegheny County in 2010.
Wednesday, February 25, 2015: accessibility issues in the HQ building
A letter was sent from the HSE Committee recapping our efforts to improve accessibility for restrooms, ramps and doorways throughout the Headquarters building. We will keep revisiting this until we see some improvements. Our next communication will give them a deadline after which we will schedule our outside ADA evaluator to come in for a tour.

Rapid Response
Committee Report
Please sign any online petition or sign any letter that opposes current FAST TRACK legislation !!!
This legislation, FAST TRACK trade authority cuts out Congress from the negotiating process, limiting its ability to influence decisions that will have real and significant impacts throughout our state and nation. It will send more of our jobs overseas.
It is time for a new approach to trade where we all can benefit. Unfortunately the current FAST TRACK proposal does not achieve that goal. We strongly urge our members to oppose FAST TRACK !
