Welcome to the Local 6000 website. Our 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. Union made Local 6000 apparel can be purchased thru the members only section.
We are hoping that our 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. |
