Brothers and sisters,
Veterans Day allows our nations to honor the men and women who served in the military and dedicated themselves to protecting our democracy.
LOOK: IAM Union Veterans
On this Veterans Day, our union is not just sending a message of gratitude, but we are putting our words into action with our new IAM Veterans Services Program. This successful program helps IAM members who are U.S. Army veterans understand and apply for the benefits they have earned after service.
The mission of the IAM Veterans Services Program is to ensure that veterans and their families receive adequate care and support. The Veterans Services Program helps veterans properly apply for VA benefits and compensation and provides assistance with education, employment, home loans, life insurance, pension, health care health and burial.
Our union is committed to honoring our brave men and women in our armed forces. I want to commend our members, many of whom are veterans, who work to support our military.
I encourage everyone to take a moment to thank a veteran for their service.

Happy Veterans Day, machinists.
In solidarity,
Bob Martinez
