Challenges Faced By The independent Oil Workers Union Use

The letter is from the Independent Oil Workers Union in the UAE to Congressman Jones. The union is facing difficulties as it has been reduced to 85 members and Texaco, which bought the Paragon Oil Co., has been challenging their contractual rights. The company has laid off workers and denied their participation in an early retirement plan. The union has limited funds and is facing multiple arbitration cases. They have also filed charges with the N.L.R.B but have not received a hearing. The union is fighting for fairness and requests assistance from Congressman Jones.
