Women's History Month Profiles: Christina Lemyre

Christina Lemyre

This year, for Women's History Month, we're taking a look at a group of leaders who are currently active making women's history across the labor movement. Check back daily for a new profile and meet some of the people working to improve not only their community, but also to improve conditions for working people across the country. Today's profile is Christina Lemyre of the Heat and Frost Insulators (HFIU).

Christina Lemyre put together HFIU Local 12's first-ever women’s committee, called Sisters of Local 12. She is very involved with the local, and put together a barbecue for members and their families. Lemyre exemplifies what it means to be a good union member—rather than complain, she looks for ways to improve things.
