This letter serves to inform you that Griffin Pipe Products Company has locked the union employees out of the plant and has refused to continue to bargain with the union in good faith.  The issue is with seniority rights at the plant.  We are not asking for any donations at this time however any help or support of the picket line or any other support would be greatly appreciated.  If you have any questions or would like to help in any way please send correspondence to the address above, attention Danny Brodersen.  Or you may contact Danny Brodersen at 402-639-8265 or the Union Hall at 712-325-8533.

Thank you in advance for any support you are able to provide.

Sincerely,

Danny Brodersen, Vice President
