Overview

Mission

See part iiia & schedule 0

What it reported doing in 2025

All expenses were incurred in performance of the exempt function of administering its affairs, carrying out organizing efforts within its jurisdiction, achieving and securing higher wages, better hours and improved working conditions for its approximately 462 members.

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 97% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
Distribution model
Transfer-based 990-EZ. The 990-EZ reports grants or member benefits, but it does not separate enough spending to show the nonprofit’s full delivery mix.

The verdict

REVIEW - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
