Local 349 has many committees and clubs, providing members with meaningful opportunities to socialize, strengthen the union, contribute to the community, and have fun. Please check in with contacts regarding meeting times and Covid protocols.
The IBEW Local Union 349 has a proud history of making a difference in the community and giving back to society. We touch the lives of our local neighbors through various kinds of community service, recognizing that we have a particular responsibility to be a good corporate citizen. Volunteers are always needed! Look for detailed information regarding these events on the website, at union meetings, in the IBEW 349 newsletter, and through mailers. Join us!
The IBEW 349 Political Action Committee (PAC) is set up to participate in COPE, the Committee on Political Education, which is the political arm of the labor movement.
COPE reports facts about political issues and candidates. It follows the voting records of elected officials. It helps educate members so we can vote intelligently and in the best interests of our families and the union.
We flex our union’s power by keeping politicians informed about our union’s positions on policies and interviewing/vetting political candidates for office. Join us!
The EWMC is a strong advocate for greater minority representation in the IBEW. The EWMC is well-respected by the IBEW and the labor movement because of its commitment to the pursuit of socioeconomic justice as well as its dedication to ongoing community service. We are dedicated IBEW men and women who work to affect changes that will benefit minorities and the entire IBEW membership. The Caucus serves as a support and networking system, and we provide education and training for our members. Join us!

The 349 Lightning Catchers is a fun way to kick it with other members on the field. We play in tournaments, and once a year, we do a Toys for Tots exhibition game where fans bring toys for charity. It’s just another way we can strengthen our bond with our union brothers and sisters. We have teamwork on the field the same way we have teamwork on the job. Join us or attend a game!
