To the Editor:

Carl Younger, candidate for Region One Vice President has served in various capacities within our local from the Governing Board to the Executive Committee and on the International level for the Human Rights and Equity Committee, currently as the committee chair.  Carl has been recognized for his dedicated work, benefiting not only TNG members, but members of our community as well.  His awards and scholarships speak not only to his accomplishments, but to his strong leadership.

 I am voting for Carl Younger for Region One Vice President because Carl is qualified and has the experience for the position, but I am also voting for Carl because of who he is as a person.  Carl is a true gentleman; kind, gracious and humble. He is an individual of high integrity and character.  His extensive historical knowledge of unionism dovetails well with his experience and affords him the ability to better anticipate and manage the many issues leaders must find resolutions to.  In my six years of working with Carl I have witnessed first hand his passion for the Guild and for the members he serves.

Best of Luck to you Carl !
