Welcome to the new Local 6000 website. Our new website will keep active and retired Local 6000 members up-to-date on the latest events surrounding state government, our union family and our benefits.

The “log-on” section of the website will contain information that is only available to Local 6000 members and retirees. We are hoping that our new web page will allow the Local to communicate with the membership in a timelier manner. So please check the website often and register now if you have not already done so.

ACTION ALERT
