Today, we celebrate 250 years of American independence and honor the generations of hardworking Americans who have built this great nation.

For the United Association, that journey began in 1889, when skilled tradesmen came together to raise the standard of our industry and improve the lives of working families. Here in UA Local 146, we’ve proudly carried that mission forward since 1895, serving our communities and helping build the infrastructure that keeps America running.

For more than a century, our members have built hospitals, schools, refineries, power plants, commercial buildings, and the systems that provide safe water, reliable heating and cooling, and countless other essential services.

As we celebrate 250 years of freedom, we also celebrate the values that have united us for generations of hard work, craftsmanship, opportunity, and service. We’re proud of where we’ve come from, grateful for those who came before us, and committed to training the next generation of skilled union craftsmen and women who will build America’s future.

Happy Independence Day from the Fort Worth Pipe Trades Training Center and UA Local 146.
250 years of American freedom. More than 135 years of United Association excellence. 131 years of UA Local 146 proudly serving North Texas.

🇺🇸 Happy 4th of July! 🇺🇸
