We're TCU!

          The letters stand for the Transportation Communications Union, 100 years in the making and getting stronger every day!  We're here to  stay, ready to take on whatever comes in the next 100!

          The Union is headed by Robert A. Scardelletti who has been TCU's International President since 1991.  International Secretary-Treasurer is L. E. Bosher.  There are eight International Vice Presidents who, with the President and Secretary-Treasurer, form the Union's Executive Council which coordinates the overall operation and direction of the Union.  A seven-member Board of Trustees oversees Union finances and property.

          With headquarters in Rockville, Maryland, just outside of Washington, D.C., the international provides members with a range of services, including education, information and community services.

          Our Union was founded in 1899 when a group of 33 railway clerks in Sedalia, Missouri, banded together in their common struggle for human dignity on the job.

Though the times have changed, our needs as working Americans have not.  TCU members are employed with hundreds of different companies as reservations agents, bus and taxi drivers, truck drivers, warehouse workers, skycaps, secretaries, railroad police officers and many other areas.  In addition our members work at Disney World in housekeeping, as bellmen, in watercrafts including as lifeguards, on the monorail system, and in other important areas.
