For example, he played an instrumental role in the process that gave workers on Fluor-Lane’s expansion of Route 495 Hot Lanes Project a choice on whether to join a union. That was a critical initiative, since those workers voted overwhelmingly to be members of LiUNA Local 11, in one of the most impressive union victories in the construction industry in the state of Virginia to happen in many years.He is still a proud member of LiUNA Local #1058 out of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Dennis Martire is also tightly involved with the Laborers’ Health and Safety Fund of North America (LHSFNA), he serves as a Trustee for the Mid-Atlantic Laborers’ Employers Cooperation and Education Trust (MALECET), and he serves as Chairman of the Mid-Atlantic Regional Organizing Coalition (MAROC), and Chairman of the Performance Management Committee, as well as a Committee Member for the Pennsylvania Workforce Investment Board, Board Member (PA WIB), among many others Dennis currently lives in Northern Virginia with his family.
