WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Representative Mark Pocan (WI-02) introduced a resolution honoring the 85th anniversary of the National Treasury Employees Union.
NTEU has long been at the forefront of improving the lives and livelihoods of federal workers fighting for better working conditions, benefits, protections, and opportunities. It now represents 150,000 workers employed by 34 federal agencies.
“As a card-carrying union member,” said Rep. Pocan, “I believe every worker, no matter their employer, should have the opportunity to be represented by a union. NTEU members carry out essential functions of our government and are effective advocates for fair pay and benefits. To the workers of the NTEU, congratulations on your 85th anniversary!”
Founded in Wisconsin in 1938, the Union was established to advocate for civil service protections for revenue collectors and prevent political influence in the revenue collection workforce.
