Dear Fellow ACRE Members:

ACRE is in receipt of a letter from the UTU International President (not the last two Presidents who are currently in prison but the current one) in which he designates the appointed officers of the UTU local on our property.  These officers, some of whom campaigned unsuccessfully to be ACRE officers, apparently realized it is much easier to be self-appointed within the UTU than democratically elected by their peers in ACRE.  

Our members should be aware of the fact that our current ACRE officers will never consider running for office in the UTU.  A vote to support a UTU "A" Card drive is a vote to support the replacement of the officers you now have with the appointed UTU officers named below. Please keep this in mind when asked to sign an "A" card by the UTU.
