Guest Blogger: Local 308 Salaries in 2025 (Form 990)

Guest blog by Adrian Hender 

Union members should know how much of their dues money pays for officer salaries. The tax records below were obtained lawfully and should be shared with all members. This does not include pay for Assistant Executive Board members "stewards" or other persons. That remains to be a mystery. 

Interesting to note that the most paid is officer President Pennie McCoach. The least paid is Executive Board Member Eric Basir. The highest salary is the former attorney, Anita "Hersh" Tanay at $220,844.
