Former ARLA Presidents
Our organization has a strong foundation that was built by the contributions of both former and current leaders. We are grateful for the efforts of those who came before us and are committed to continuing their legacy while also adapting to changing circumstances while maintaining our commitment to protecting the FELA and advocating for the rights of injured workers and their families.
