United Transportation Union. Office of the Illinois State Legislative Director (Chicago, Ill.)

Hide Profile

Labor union formed in 1969 by merger of four railroad unions: Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen (BRT), Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen (BLF &E), Order of Railway Conductors and Brakemen (ORCC & B), and Switchmen's Union of North America (SUNA). State Legislative Director lobbies for legislation favorable to railroad labor, represents union interests before the Illinois and Interstate Commerce Commissions and other governmental agencies, and informs union members about governmental activities affecting railroad and transportation labor.
