To:   All IBEW Local Unions in the United States and Canada Having Inside & Outside Jurisdiction

Dear Sisters and Brothers:

     The IBEW is the leader in organized labor for promoting and advertising on the Web with up-to-date educational and informational news; job tips; sportsman opportunities; and positive stories showing the IBEW is the best choice for all electrical workers, contractors and the customer.

     Anyone on the World Wide Web can easily become acquainted with all the attributes of the IBEW and what we, as a union, have to offer. As you know, a Web site with links to other sites serves as a springboard to additional, related information which provides for exponential exposure.

     Collectively, IBEW needs to put our best effort forward in ensuring that a visit to your Web page could lead to a dynamic and professionally prduced tour of other excellent Web sites that will reinforce our proud message of opportunity, training and professionalism. Therefore, I am requesting all local unions with inside and outside jurisdiction in the United States and Canada to add the following links to your Web site: www.ibewhourpower.com, www.ibew.org, www.electrictv.net, www.electrifyingcareers.com, www.thequalityconnection.org, and www.njatc.org.

With best wishes, I am

          Fraternally yours,

          Edwin D. Hill
          International President
