We, the concerned residents of Commerce, California and supporters from across the United States, demand the immediate removal of the Local 636 District Council 36 IUPAT (International Union of Painters and Allied Trades) Apprenticeship Coordinator due to a multitude of serious concerns regarding their conduct and qualifications.

1. Unsafe Work Practices: It has come to our attention that the current coordinator has consistently overlooked safety protocols within the apprenticeship program. This negligence puts apprentices at risk of injury or even death. We cannot allow such disregard for safety in an industry where workplace accidents are already a significant concern.

2. Lack of Qualifications: The coordinator's incompetence is evident through their inability to effectively guide apprentices in acquiring necessary skills and knowledge for their trade. Their lack of expertise undermines the quality and integrity of this apprenticeship program, hindering future professionals' ability to excel in their careers.

3. Bullying Behavior: Numerous reports have surfaced regarding instances where the coordinator has engaged in bullying behavior towards apprentices under their supervision. Such actions create a hostile work environment that not only affects individuals emotionally but also hampers productivity and learning opportunities.

4. Threats Towards Apprentices: Unacceptable incidents involving threats made by the coordinator towards vulnerable apprentices have been brought to our attention repeatedly. This behavior creates an atmosphere filled with fear and intimidation instead of fostering a supportive learning environment necessary for personal growth.

5. Dishonesty & Manipulation: The current coordinator has been found guilty on multiple occasions of providing false information or misleading statements regarding various aspects related to this apprenticeship program's administration and execution. Their dishonesty erodes trust among participants while compromising transparency within this vital educational pathway.

It is crucial that we address these issues promptly as they directly impact both current and future apprentices, as well as the reputation of the Local 636 District Council 36 IUPAT. We call upon the relevant authorities to conduct a thorough investigation into these allegations and take immediate action to remove the current coordinator from their position.

By signing this petition, we are demanding accountability, professionalism, and a safe learning environment for all apprentices within Local 636 District Council 36 IUPAT. Together, let us ensure that our community's future tradespeople receive proper guidance and support from qualified individuals who prioritize their well-being.
