BUY UNION IN 2014
The NPMHU proposes a New Year’s resolution to express your Union solidarity – BUY UNION MADE PRODUCTS IN 2014 We encourage all members, family and friends to join in our resolve to support organized labor by seeking out and purchasing products and services made at the hands of, or provided by, a fellow Union laborer.
The Union Label and Service Trades Department of the AFL-CIO was created to promote the product and services produced in America by union members. The AFL-CIO also maintains and publishes a “Don’t Buy” list of companies being boycotted and the products and services involved; you can access that list at the AFL-CIO sponsored website www.unionlabel.org. In addition, the NPMHU maintains a link on our home page at www.npmhu.org entitled Buy Union – Buy American. This source provides many links to a plethora of American and Union-made products. Support the Union movement by patronizing Union brands and Made in America products in 2014.

QR CODES- What’s the bar code at the bottom of the NPMHU Update? For your convenience; NPMHU has begun using a QR code for smartphone users. QR stands for Quick Response, and is made up of black modules in a square shape on a white background. Actually, you could call it a 3D bar code. The encoded text in the square can represent a web address or text; in this case the code will take you directly to www.npmhu.org. Camera phones (with a QR app) or QR readers can read the encoded message. Download the app and give it a try; stay connected.
