It has been an honor representing you, the membership of Local 304, in the capacity as Local President.
Prior to being your Local President, I was privileged to representing the membership as the Local Vice
President. Our Local was left with a huge nancial burden from the past Local 304 President, leaving our
primary checking account with a total of $22,000.00, and the balance of our secondary account with
$901.00.
Under my leadership, and with the help of a very good Executive Board, we now have approximately
$174,231.00 in our primary account and approximately $210,000.00 in mutual funds and cds.
I cut Arbitration costs in half, and was able to settle more than triple the amount of cases by meeting
with Area Labor reps in a pre-arbitration setting.
I negotiated the return of ALL the Mail Handlers when the Postal Service excessed them from the
Manseld facility. To date, we have added MORE Mail Handlers to the Manseld facility than we started
with.
I negotiated the return of Mail Handlers who were excessed from the Akron facility. We are in the
process of bringing more Mail Handlers and operations back to the Akron Plant.
I was the driving force in keeping Mail Handlers from being excessed from the Dayton and Toledo Plants.
I regularly sit side by side with my Sister and Brother Branch Presidents in District meetings and Labor
Management meetings working on issues that aect you, the working Mail Handler.
I negotiated the resolution of EVERY GRIEVANCE in the Akron facility, leaving the facility with 0
grievances in the system.
I negotiated the resolution of EVERY GRIEVANCE in the Manseld facility, leaving the facility with 0
grievances in the system.
The Canton facility is next on my agenda. I will continue this work, facility by facility, until ALL of the
grievances in our facilities have been resolved or arbitrated.
Under my leadership, all of the eligible Shop Stewards received Advanced Shop Steward training.
Under my leadership, EVERY oce in our Local was given updated equipment and new computers. They
were also provided with printers and any other tools they needed to provide the best representation
possible to you, the Membership.
These are just a few of the accomplishments of my term as Local President. I would like to continue the
work that I have started. Our Local is now back on track, and with your vote, I can take this Local to
another level. We have come too far to take ANY STEPS BACKWARDS!

Hello,
My name is Matt Wolgamott. I am the Evansville, Indiana Branch President.
I support the entire Proven Leadership For Our Future slate. Our slate
Members are very professional and dedicated in continuing to keep our
Union great. I stand behind Bip McLemore for President due to his
knowledge, experience and his total dedication to the Mail Handler craft.
Bip has worked diligently to bring Evansville, Indiana out of the mess it was
left in due to the last administration.
As for Evansville, we've struggled through a considerable amount of
challenges. Our Union held to a stronger resolve during those difficult times.
I look forward to the next term in serving our Members and continuing the
fight for our contractual rights. Thank you for your support.
In Solidarity,
Matt Wolgamott
