General President Jim Hoffa, his running mate for General Secretary-Treasurer Ken Hall and their entire slate, were elected by a wide margin in the 2011 Election of International Union Officers. According to results provided by the Office of the Election Supervisor, the Hoffa-Hall Slate defeated their two challengers with 60 percent of the vote.

It is with great sadness and regret we announce the untimely passing of Local 464 Shop Steward and friend Scott Allen. Scott was a respected advocate for his fellow workers. He handled all Union business with compassion, fairness and kind humour. He will be missed by all.
