SPEEA Spotlite Magazine Marks 80 Year Anniversary

The May 2026 edition of SPEEA/IFPTE Local 2001’s award-winning monthly member newsletter, The Spotlite, takes the opportunity to honor SPEEA’s 80th anniversary, and celebrate the many wins that the Union has delivered for members over the last eight decades. 

The newsletter includes a history of the evolution of SPEEA from when the Union was certified by the National Labor Relations Board on May, 1946, to when SPEEA affiliated with IFPTE in 1999, to the historic and successful 40-day strike in 1999, the largest white-collar strike in U.S. history.
