Message from the President: Solidarity in the Heart of It All
Welcome to the new digital home of IAM District 54.
We represent 14,000 active and retired union members across Ohio, West Virginia, Indiana, and Michigan. Our strength is in our numbers, but our pride is in our people.
Whether you are working under a Service Contract (SCA), standing on a manufacturing floor, or serving the public sector, District 54 is your voice on the job. From the industrial hub of Cleveland to the essential workplaces across Ohio, West Virginia, Indiana, and Michigan, we are united by a single goal: ensuring every worker is treated with the dignity, safety, and respect they have earned.
The remaster of our website isn't just about a new look—it’s about reinforcing the power of the union contract. In today’s economy, your voice on the job is your only real security. We take immense pride in our servicing, our history of bargaining, and our commitment to the communities where our members live and work.
If you are already a member, thank you for your service and your solidarity. If you aren't yet standing with us, I invite you to look at the benefits of organizing on our Union Now page. There is a reason 14,000 workers choose District 54: we deliver results at the table and protection on the floor.
Our tools and our technology change, but our mission to fight for the labor movement and middle class never will.
In Solidarity,
T. Dean Wright, Jr.
President and Directing Business Representative
IAM District 54
