From the ATU’s fight for an operator seat to striking for fair wages to securing COVID protections for our members, our Union has a deep and storied history of fighting for the rights of our members.
Today, International President John Costa visited the History Factory in downtown Washington, D.C., to discuss potential designs for our ambitious endeavor of a permanent exhibit that will preserve and showcase ATU's history as we prepare to relocate to our new headquarters at the historic 21 Dupont Circle.
"Our members have been on the front lines of the labor movement for generations," Costa said. "We're making sure our more than 130 years of organizing, advocacy, and wins for transit workers and the labor movement will be preserved. Our story is a bold one, and we're committed to making sure our new headquarters will tell our story."
