IBEW 1049 Highlights
Leadership Transition at IBEW Local 1049
At the June 11th Executive Board Meeting, Recording Secretary Thomas Dowling announced his resignation, effective June 19, 2024. Brother Dowling has faithfully served our union for over 35 years, contributing significantly in roles such as union steward, governmental affairs leader, and charity advocate. His dedication and commitment to excellence will be greatly missed.
The Executive Board has unanimously appointed Anthony Scotto as the new Recording Secretary, effective July 1, 2024. We are confident in Anthony's abilities and look forward to his leadership.
