Cops give DNC labor pains: Unions won’t cross picket line By Scott Van Voorhis and Jack Meyers, Boston Herald, MA
Meanwhile, the head of the powerful electricians union - a key player in the planned FleetCenter transformation into a temporary political showcase - pledged not to cross the police picket lines.
'I don't know any trade unionists who will cross the picket line,'' said Myles Calvey, business manager of IBEW Local 2222. `"That is just taboo.''
Yesterday's support came amid speculation that some building trade unions with strong ties to City Hall might not honor the police union's picket lines. One labor official suggested that some union construction workers might sit out for a few days before quietly slipping back to work.------------------------------------------- posted 7:11 AM :: reference link ::
