The IBEW is North America's largest electrical union, representing 860,000 members in utilities, construction, telecommunications, broadcasting, manufacturing, railroads and government.

The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) represents electrical professionals, providing benefits, resources, and support to its members.

The IBEW's membership peaked in 1972 at approximately 1 million members. The membership numbers were in a slow decline throughout the rest of the 1970s and the 1980s, but have since stabilized.

Upon the foundation of our national organization in St. Louis on it was re-chartered as IBEW Local No. 1. Today the IBEW’s 881 local unions represent over 750,000 members across the United States, Canada, and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.

Since 1891, the IBEW has worked to build an empowered work force and partnered with employers that face the challenges of an evolving economy and developing technologies.

The new law contains many irresponsible policies, such as tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy, and cuts to health insurance that will increase the cost of health care for every American, including IBEW members.
