WELCOME TO ILA LOCAL 1624

KEVIN HALSTEAD
President – ILA Local 1624
On behalf of the three-hundred and fifty Clerks & Checkers of ILA Local 1624, welcome to our new website. This website was built, not only to serve our members, but the Port community as well.
The men and women of Local 1624 are proud members of the Virginia seaport community. We are first, second, third, fourth, and even fifth generation Longshoremen. Each of us is extremely proud of the history and legacy we have inherited, and each of us share in the responsibility to build upon the legacy that was left by those who have gone on before.
In 2014, the Port of Virginia set its new annual benchmark for container volume having handled more than 2.3 million TEUs, a 7.6 percent increase over last year’s total. We moved 169,000 more TEUs than we did in 2013, which until now was our most productive year on record.
We take great pride in the accomplishments of the members of ILA Local 1624. However, these accomplishments did not come easy. Unionism is not a heritage; membership is a privilege that must be continually protected and fought for by the dedicated men and women of the International Longshoremen’s Association.
We are union by choice and proud of it….
