    Union pickets Kohl's site here By Joy Davia, Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, NY
    An area union is picketing the Kohl’s construction site on West Henrietta Road in Henrietta.

    The Empire State Regional Council of Carpenters Local 85 is upset that the discount department store chain, which is based in Wisconsin, is using contractors who typically give their workers substandard wages and benefits, said Charles Peaslee, a union representative.
