About IAM District 4
Our Commitment is to the workers.
IAM District 4 represents thousands of workers at over 100 companies, across 22 states, and in over 65 cities.
Our district is the most diverse in our union, not just because of its borders, but because of its members. From the salty decks of lobster boats, to rumbling and roaring machine shops, and even between the cozy shelves of libraries, we fight for our members no matter where they work. We believe that all workers deserve respect, dignity, and their fair share.
District 4 has a unique history that gives it an even more unique jurisdiction.
The district is divided into two regions, with Region One’s office in Lisbon, ME and Region Two’s in Millersville, MD. We represent workers in communities across Maryland, Maine, Vermont, and Washington D.C., and more.

Our job isn’t just to improve the workplaces of our members, its to improve the lives of our communities.
