Thank You and Best Wishes to Mike Breunig.

We would like to take a moment to thank Mike and wish him all the best as he embarks on an exciting new chapter following his recent promotion.

Mike became a proud member of Union Council 8 in 1997. In the early 2000s, he joined the board, serving in key roles including Trustee and Sergeant-at-Arms. In 2015, when Ed was promoted to a non-Union Council 8 title, Mike stepped into the role of Vice President. When Tom retired in Dec 2019 Mike became our Council President.

Under Mike’s leadership—and with the support of a strong, committed board—Union Council 8 has experienced meaningful growth and positive change. The board has remained actively engaged with its members, strengthening the spirit of solidarity and service.

One of Mike’s most heartfelt goals was to see the creation of a scholarship program for Union Council 8 members and their families. We are proud to say that Mike will have the opportunity to witness the very first two scholarship recipients—a milestone that reflects his vision and dedication.

Mike, thank you for your years of service and the many contributions you’ve made to Union Council 8, IFPTE, AFL-CIO, CLC. Your leadership has left a lasting legacy.

We wish you continued success and all the best in your next chapter!
