Don't know about Long Island, but Fox Business’s Stuart Varney conducted an interview with a General Manager for an Alabama power company that had crews staged in Virginia ready to move North. The Manager said his company was presented with documents from the IBEW that would require his crews to join the union to work in New Jersey and when they wouldn't sign, they were refused permission to work. His crews are now on their way back to Alabama.
The Manager said his company was presented with documents from the IBEW that would require his crews to join the union to work in New Jersey and when they wouldn't sign, they were refused permission to work. I guess when the people of New Jersey complain that they do not have power, they should just call the IBEW. Then, within 15 minutes, their power will be restored, just like Obama said!
Very sad state of affairs where, again, the unions put their self interests in front of the people they are supposed to serve.
