Member Spotlight: JP Cash

Introducing JP Cash, a drywall finisher and painter for Local 549!

His favorite part about his trade is the freedom to work in so many different places. Before he joined DC 57, he didn’t have a steady job with benefits. But now, he has financial security and the opportunity to live out his goals.

What would JP tell you about the union finishing trades? “It is a career that offers learning on the job where you can advance in skill and pay.”
