Dear IBEW 569 Member:
Election Day is Tuesday June 7th and polls are open from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm.
Here are our IBEW 569 Endorsements for this Election:
Always, our #1 priority in determining who receives the endorsement of IBEW 569 is whether the candidate or the initiative will result in more work for our members with higher wages, and a better quality of life.
Our endorsed candidates have demonstrated they support IBEW 569 members. We arrived at these endorsements through a rigorous democratic process whereby IBEW 569 joined unions of the San Diego and Imperial Counties Labor Council and Building Trades Councils to interview candidates.

We can disagree on some issues, but IBEW 569 will continue to endorse candidates and policies that support putting our members to work with union wages and benefits – that’s always the priority and determining factor and I hope you will join me in voting #UnionStrong.
