PEOPLE POWERED POLITICS - Connecting Community
Glen Steele has worked as a Tech at the Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital for almost a decade. Glen is a strong leader and one of the founding members of UFCW 21’s Movement Builders, a group dedicated to connecting members and community. With Movement Builders Glen has worked diligently for LGBTQ rights, issues dear to his heart because he has a trans child. Glen says, “I just want my child to have the same rights and level of equality as others.” Glen worked hard on bills such as WA Won’t Discriminate – I-1552. Glen is fighting to make sure trans health care is covered at MultiCare for all employees. For his dedication to building deep connection between community and labor, Glen was awarded the “Building A Movement” Award at this year’s Leadership Conference.
When union members stand united, speak out, and take action, we have the power to make a difference on the job and in our communities. If you are interested in becoming a leader contact us online at UFCW21.org.
