Who we are

Local Lodge 933 represents the working people. We have been proud members of the Tucson community since our founding in 1952.  Our history of fighting for fairness to working families is one of which we are very proud.

The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers  represents nearly a million men and women who work in more than 350 classifications or industries as defined by the U.S. Department of Labor in the commercial, manufacturing, non-manufacturing, private, public, federal, state and local government sectors of our nation's economy. This web site supports the members of the Local Lodge 933 Tucson, Arizona better known as the Old Pueblo.

The IAM is proud of its history of community service.  Our involvement with United Way, Habitat for Humanity, the Red Cross, and many other organizations only furthers exemplifies our commitment to help in the neighborhoods where we live.  The IAM founded the Guide Dogs of America, when a former member lost his sight and was denied a dog, because of his age.  This discrimination brought our Union into action.  To date, we have delivered over 2,000 dogs to sight-impaired persons, all free of charge.  The cost to train a dog, and the partner, is approximately $25,000 for each set.  We raise the money for GDA through benefits throughout our communities, and donations from our members.
