The Maryland/DC Retirees and Seniors are a growing group within the 1199SEIU family. The group engages working and retired seniors in the Maryland/DC region in a full range of political and social activities, and is actively expanding its membership. 
Thanks to the tireless 1199SEIU members, the union’s Maryland/DC Training and Upgrading Fund will receive $309,000 in new state funds to train union members to meet future workforce needs.
Members of 1199SEIU joined Baltimore City Councilman Nick Mosby, local clergy and community groups for a rally May 22 at the Inner Harbor to launch a new campaign for improved wages for the city’s 1,000 private security officers.
