On Saturday, the UAW Region 9A Veterans Council held our 27th annual dinner dance, raising funds for veterans advocacy throughout our region.

The keynote speakers were Corporal Thomas Patterson of the Stamford Veterans Resource Center and UAW Local 2320 member and Massachusetts State Senator Lydia Edwards, who spoke about their experiences as both union members and service members. Longtime Veterans Council leader and retired Local 405 President Shawn Tripp was honored for his decades of advocacy.

Thank you to all the members who joined us to honor and support our veterans! Learn more about the work of our Veterans Council—all are invited to join our veterans advocacy efforts.
