My name is Douglas O'Halloran. I am the President of UFCW Local 401. My job is an elected one, and with the Secretary Treasurer, Theresa McLaren and a large number of vice presidents (all elected positions) I am responsible to you for leading our union. All of us are working people and our sole job is to improve the lives of working people.

This web site is intended to get information to you and to ensure you can contact us. It can only speed and enhance the necessary exchange of information between the union and its membership.

However, it can be no substitute for the spirit of unionism. Come to union meetings. Share experiences with other workers. Involve yourself in the bargaining process, committee work, stewardship and all of the other ways you can participate in Local 401. You will find it rewarding, and only through that process will you come to know a union supporters full commitment to bettering the lives of working people and the breadth of the union spirit.

Thank you for visiting our site. You are connected with UFCW Local 401 and you do have a voice. Come out and participate and see how it all works. We welcome you with open arms.
