Statement on District Council 37’s Elections

NEW YORK— Tuesday night, District Council 37’s delegate members overwhelmingly reelected Henry Garrido to a fourth three-year term as the union’s Executive Director. Garrido first took office in January 2015, becoming the first Latino to head DC 37 since it was formed in 1944.

“I want to thank our members for renewing their trust in me as our union continues the fight for justice, respect, and economic opportunity for working families. I also want to congratulate DC 37 President Shaun D. Francois I, Secretary John Hyslop, and Treasurer Maf Misbah Uddin on their reelection last night. As we celebrate 80 years since receiving our union charter, we remain prepared and committed to uplifting our members and guiding this incredible union into its next chapter.”- Henry Garrido, DC 37 Executive Director
