JOIN THE UNION

The Deep Sea Fishermen's Union of the Pacific is an independent union and the oldest organization of crewmen and skippers in the North Pacific. The Union has a distinguished, positive and progressive history as well as an unbroken series of accomplishments on behalf of working fishermen. We are no longer a Union for longliners only. We have opened our membership to crabbers and other fisheries needing our help.
The Union, since 1912, has focused on crewmen and skipper rights, safety and professionalism, the long term health of the fishery and an always high-quality product.
For added impact we are affiliated with the AFL-CIO, the Sailor's Union of the Pacific, the Washington State Labor Council and the King County Labor Council. Each of them has come to our assistance in our legislative fights for YOU the laborer who has put his/her sweat equity into harvesting the bounties of the Sea.
However, we have found to have a significant impact, standing and clout we need to grow our numbers NOW! We have many battles yet to fight. WE NEED YOU
TO JOIN so our numbers increase significantly and we have more "Horsepower"! We have turned some heads and made it known we are here and mean to be heard but think of the impact we could have with a huge membership.
We are at a critical time in our future and the future of our fisheries. We need to consolidate our resources, grow the Union and start getting respect and results.
We are not giving up the fight! Are you? You can help by joining our Union. Our list of benefits continues to grow. We have re-structured our
dues.
To join, phone us at 206.783.2922 with your name, address, zip code and phone number and we'll send you an application. Or you can email Sara Chapman our Operations Manager with your name, address, zip code, and phone number and she'll send you the information you need. Or fill out our online application and again Sara will send you our new member packet.
If you would like to volunteer to recruit new members just let us know and we'll send you as many new member packets as you think you can recruit.
