ILWU Locals 13, 63, and 94 represent the 9,260 longshoremen, marine clerks, and foremen who keep critically needed cargo flowing through the Port of Los Angeles. Our members have kept the Port the busiest container port in the Western Hemisphere for the past 20 years. At the beginning of the present pandemic, ILWU members were deemed Essential Critical Infrastructure Workers by federal, state, county, and city directives. Unlike many, essential waterfront workers are unable to work remotely. As such, they have donned their personal protective equipment (PPE), sanitized their equipment, socially distanced, and continued to work on the docks and around-the-clock to ensure cargo remains flowing. It is thanks to ILWU members that store shelves have remained stocked and medical professionals in each of the country’s 435 congressional districts have much needed PPE.
