Union representing members in the rail, transit, bus and airline industries
关于我们
We are the SMART Transportation Division, an AFL-CIO affiliate headquartered near Cleveland, Ohio. We are a broad-based, transportation labor union representing about 125,000 active and retired railroad, bus, mass transit and airline workers in the United States. With offices in Cleveland and Washington, D.C., the SMART TD is the largest railroad operating union in North America, with more than 500 locals. The SMART TD (formerly UTU) represents employees on every Class I railroad, as well as employees on many regional and shortline railroads. It also represents bus and mass transit employees on approximately 45 bus and transit systems and has recently grown to include airline pilots, dispatchers and other airport personnel.

In a letter to SMART-TD members, Marty Oberman, retired chair of the Surface Transportation Board, details the progress and policies at risk in this election. “The protections of rail workers … depends a lot on whether these important offices are filled by a worker-oriented administration. We will need an Administration that will appoint officials who care about rail workers and continue the aggressive oversight [provided] by the current Democratic-led STB and FRA.” https://lnkd.in/gD9xhb6p
