IBEW Local 1212
In Memory of Our Brothers & Sisters
We honor those who walked beside us — dedicated professionals and union brothers and sisters who gave their talents, their time, and their hearts to the broadcast industry and to our union family.
We Will Never Forget
On September 11, 2001, IBEW Local 1212 lost four of our brothers in the attacks on the World Trade Center. They were at work that morning — doing what they did every day, serving the broadcast needs of New York City and the nation.

Along with 17 members of IBEW Local 3 who also perished on that terrible day.
We carry them with us. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.

“The labor movement did not diminish the strength of the nation but enlarged it. By raising the living standards of millions, labor miraculously created a market for industry and lifted the whole nation to undreamed of levels of production.”
— George Meany
