The Veterans Committee seeks members who are willing to represent the interest of all active and retired UAW veterans and their families. This committee is dedicated to advocating for the political and social concerns of Veterans. This is accomplished through leadership, guidance and education on matters of concern, such as:
- The Agent Orange Act of 1991

The Veterans Committee takes the lead, and answers the call to keep our community clean. The Veterans Committee has “Adopted a Highway” and helps keep it clean on a regular basis.

Recently members of the Veterans Committee donated blankets and quilts to the American Children’s Home in Lexington. They were welcomed with open arms by ACH-NC rep Mr. Eddie Patton, who is also a UAW member from his prior place of employment. Mr. Eddie showed the Committee around the Home and gave information regarding its history, and the ACH’s plans for the future.
Join us in thanking the Veterans Committee and the Folks at the ACH for standing up for those in need. More pictures of the committee’s visit can be found here: American Children’s Home
