The United Mine Workers of America is a growing union with a diverse membership that includes coal miners, clean coal technicians, health care workers, truck drivers, manufacturing workers and public employees throughout the United States and Canada. In the face of an unrelentingly hostile environment for union organizing in the United States, the UMWA is achieving significant success in providing workers with a voice on the job and financial security at home. The international union today continues the fight we began in 1890 for safe workplaces, good wages and benefits and fair representation in workplaces throughout North America. The United Mine Workers of America and our members are a major economic and social presence in the communities in which we live. Our local unions sponsor local sports teams and scout troops. Our members are coaches and volunteers. We believe in community service because we want our communities to be the best they can be. The good union wages, comprehensive health benefits and secure pensions our active and retired members receive form the foundation of our local economies. Numerous outreach programs in such diverse areas as education, job training and access to quality health services ensure that towns and villages in frequently rural, remote locations get the attention they deserve.

Much has happened to USPA since its humble beginnings when ex-military parachutist Joe Crane incorporated a loose-knit group of barnstormers into the National Parachute-Riggers, Inc. on July 10, 1946. First, working from his home basement on Long Island, New York, Crane later gained the help of other dedicated thrill-seeking pioneers like Jacques Istel and Lew Sanborn, to grow our organization from just a couple of hundred parachuting enthusiasts to nearly 32,000 members. Changing its name in 1957 to the Parachute Club of America, it finally became the United States Parachute Association in 1967. First, they convinced the National Aeronautic Association (NAA) to issue sporting licenses similar to those it issued to pilots. Then, on their behalf, the NAA recommended that the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (FAI) include a parachute category in their organization. The stature gained by its relationship with the NAA allows USPA to represent all U.S. skydivers, not only before local, state and federal government bodies, but at all international skydiving events and meetings worldwide.
