Things are happening at the Port of Philadelphia and the ILA is proud to be part of it all! No one can miss all the great things going on at the Port right now: we’re deepening our shipping channel to 45 feet. We’re moving forward with Southport, the first major new marine terminal in decades. We’re aggressively attracting new cargoes while continuing our dedication to our existing business. And, we here, at ILA Local 1291 are proud to be at the center of everything, helping our many allies in the maritime industry to make this Port all it can be now and in the future! So, as we make continued progress, the ILA wants to take a moment to thank and salute those allies, because without everyone working together, all would be lost! So, we want to use this opportunity to acknowledge these fine individuals and organizations:
The Philadelphia Regional Port Authority PRPA’s many fine terminal operators The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Our fellow unions and their hardworking memberships Governor Tom Corbett
US Senators Bob Casey and Patrick Toomey Congressman Bob Brady State Senators Mike Stack and Larry Farnese State Representatives Bill Keller and John Taylor Our many other allies in government
And, last but not least, the fine membership of ILA Local 1291, who safely, quickly, and expertly move the world’s cargoes every day!
Let’s all continue to move forward! Sincerely and In Unity,
