In my last update I mentioned the Top-Down organizing effort in Chattanooga. I am pleased to announce these efforts are paying off because we recently signed Orr Interiors based in Chattanooga, TN. In our meetings with Mike Orr, owner of Orr Interiors, it was immediately apparent that we shared the same concerns about the industry. Mike refused to stoop to the unscrupulous tactics that many of his competitors are using. For this we applaud Orr Interiors and welcome them as our newest partnering contractor.

Because Orr Interiors is so respected in the Chattanooga market, their signing has opened many other doors. We have now been successful in starting meaningful conversations with several Interior Systems Contractors in the area. Hopefully in my next update I will be able to report to you that we have been successful again.
 

And always remember every Member is an Organizer, so let’s get out there and Educate, Agitate and ORGANIZE!!!

Fraternally,

Robert Helton
Organizing Director/Special Projects
