Ironworkers Local 7 member Chad Ward and LIUNA 327 member Hayley Ward speak at a press conference in support of federal infrastructure funding and energy tax credits last week.

We offer our heartfelt condolences to the family of Bangor Firefighter William “Billy” Van Peursem, who died Wednesday evening after taking his own life. Van Peursem was hired by the Fire Department in 1989 and most recently served as the Lieutenant on Engine 5 assigned to "B" Shift. 

On Wednesday evening, nurses from Houlton Regional Hospital’s (HRH) Labor, Delivery, Recovery, and Postpartum (LDRP) unit were again joined by scores of community members for a candlelight vigil in a protest against the proposed closure of their hospital’s LDRP department.
