Dear Sisters and Brothers:
Due to the disability retirement of International Administrative Vice President, Susan Resch, the TWU International Executive Council, at the IEC meeting on June 7, 2011, endorsed International Vice President and Railroad Division Director, Gary Maslanka to fill the remainder of the vacated term, as outlined in the TWU Constitution Article VII.
On a personal note there is no question that Susan Resch will be missed and on behalf of all of our staff we wish her all the best for the future. We are fortunate to have Gary as a new member of the International Administrative Committee and as you can see from his bio he brings a great deal of knowledge to the position. In his current capacity as Director of the Railroad Division he has certainly taken on a number of challenges and I have always appreciated his sound judgment in the execution of decisions.
In his new role as International Administrative Vice President, Gary will continue as Director of the Railroad Division. We have agreed to review the position over the next 12 months and make adjustments as required.
On behalf of the entire organization I want to thank Gary for accepting the position and look forward to working with him.
Sincerely and fraternally,
James C. Little
International President
