Aero Mechs Shout Out In Iowa Caucuses

Leaders of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) got together Sunday in Cedar Rapids (IA) to kickoff a week of events aimed at making job creation the pivotal issue in the upcoming Iowa caucus.

Speakers included: Tom Buffenbarger, IAM International President (right); James E. Brown, IAM General Vice President - Midwest Territory; Joe Ironside, IAM District 6 Business Representative; Jerry Nowadzky, IAM District 6 President and Ron Hunt, Teamster Local 238 Business Agent.

The event featured the union's now-infamous "Wall of Shame" bearing the names of more than 1,000 Iowans whose jobs were lost due to plant closings and outsourcing. The wall will moved to union events across the state during the upcoming week, just ahead of the Iowa caucus.

The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, AFL- CIO, CLC, represents 8,500 Iowans among more than 700,000 active and retired members across North America.
