Union rallies as Con Ed strike deadline looms By LUKAS I. ALPERT, AP, Newsday
Chanting 'No contract, no lights,' members of several unions rallied alongside Consolidated Edison utility workers Thursday in support of their quest for a new contract as their strike deadline drew near.
The Con Ed union's leaders said they were prepared to work hard for a contract before the Saturday midnight deadline but were ready to strike.
'We are ready to roll up our sleeves and not sleep for the next few days, but we're prepared to do what we have to,' said Manny Hellin, president of Local 1-2 of the Utility Workers of America. 'We work for a good company, but as they reap their benefits we feel we deserve our share.'------------------------------------------- posted 7:55 AM :: reference link ::
