Local 776 held their annual DRIVE dinner/dance on April 2, 2016. DRIVE members and their guests were treated to dinner and entertainment for their support of DRIVE.

In his opening remarks Local President Ed Thompson thanked the DRIVE members for their continued support. “You are leading the fight for working families throughout the country. This past November with your help all of the Local 776 endorsed candidates were elected to office. Local politics play an important role in our member’s lives, your contributions to DRIVE enable the Local Union to make workers rights and working conditions goals of the politicians we support. Thank you and enjoy your evening!”
