“Just as we expect everyone to take action in case of an on-the-job accident, we all have to be ready to recognize and step up when someone is struggling mentally. That’s what the IBEW is all about. We are our brothers’ and sisters’ keepers.” - #IBEW IST Paul Noble
“The IBEW has been a part of the electrical construction industry since its very beginnings. But we are not just this industry’s past. We are its future.” #IBEW Pres. Kenny Cooper, 2026 Construction & Maintenance Conference

"I’ve talked many times about my goal of one million members, but we won’t get there without our members in broadcasting, manufacturing, and telecommunications." - #IBEW Int. Pres. Kenny Cooper 2026 Broadcasting, Manufacturing, and Telecommunications Conference
