Labor dispute spawns Simon's Rock rally By Derek Gentile, Berkshire Eagle
Jon Avery, a labor representative from the New England Regional Council of Carpenters, said the real victims are the workers, 'who came up here on trust. And then they are paid wages that no one else will work for.'
Avery said that while the workers in some cases gave fictitious names because they were illegal aliens, he has the name and address of their crew chief. If the money is eventually paid back, he said, 'we'll find them. If I have to fly out there myself, I'll do it.'------------------------------------------- posted 6:52 AM :: reference link ::
