Sick worker, union issues dominate remembrance ceremony By Paul Parson, Oak Ridger, TN
Carl 'Bubba' Scarbrough said he realized it wasn't a 'pulpit for politickin',' but that didn't stop him from discussing current union woes during an event at Oak Ridge's First Presbyterian Church.
Scarbrough, president of the Atomic Trades and Labor Council, was one of two guest speakers Wednesday afternoon at a Workers' Memorial Day service at the church.
'We think we got a legit complaint,' Scarbrough told the 30-plus crowd, which consisted of several union members.
The ATLC chief said it appears the cost of health insurance is going up for workers at federal facilities while the amount of coverage is decreasing. Scarbrough's organization represents hourly workers at the Y-12 National Security Complex and Oak Ridge National Laboratory.------------------------------------------- posted 6:44 AM :: reference link ::
