    Unions protest work site in Two Harbors BY SHARON ALMIRALL, Lake County News-Chronicle
    “It’s an out-of-town owner bringing people from out of town to do the work. Some of the workers have said they’re coming from 400 miles away,” said Jim Stebe, business representative for the Bricklayers union No. 1 Minnesota, Chapter 3, and one of the protesters at the site on Monday.

    Stebe said there are four members of the Duluth Building Trades Councils including laborers 1091, operating engineers 49, iron workers 512 and the bricklayers who are objecting to the construction.
