Carson Announces Retirement
With the employer's offer of an early out incentive which will become effective April 30, 2025, the Local will suffer the loss of a significant number of experienced and dedicated Union representatives. Perhaps the greatest loss will be the departure of our Harrisburg Branch President and Pennsylvania State Executive Board Member Brian Carson. Brother Carson has been an integral member of Local Union Leadership for as long as we can remember and his unflinching commitment to the defense of mail handlers rights in the workplace and in the guidance of this Local's great success has been an inspiration to all. Brian's fierce and unyielding advocacy for what's right about the Labor movement will surely be missed. Congratulations Brian on your well-deserved retirement.
Who's Next
While it really doesn't need to be said and anyone who has spent any time at all with Brother Carson would have to agree, that Brian cannot be replaced. He is certainly one of a kind. Having said that we are quite fortunate that we have two successors that are both extremely capable in their own right to fill the remainder of Brian's unexpired term of office for both the Branch President's position and the Pennsylvania State Executive Board role. First, we are pleased to announce the return of our former, highly respected Union Representative Shonn Turner to fill the remainder of Brian's term of Branch President of the Harrisburg P&DC. Shonn is both an experienced and dedicated defender of Union rights and will hit the ground running and fully ready to face the challenges ahead. Of this, we have no doubt.
Filling the remainder of Brian's term as PA State Executive Board Member will be current Lancaster Branch President Shelby Root. Brother Root has served the Local's membership with distinction for many years now, protecting the rights of mail handlers at every level of the grievance procedure and is without question one of the Local's top arbitration advocates. Shelby's commitment, knowledge, and ferocity in the hearing room is matched by very few.
Please join me in congratulating both Brothers Turner and Root as they take on these new and challenging roles within this Great Union.
In Solidarity,
John Gibson
