FEC fines carpenters union over election activities AP
A Kentucky carpenters union will pay a $297,000 fine after reaching an agreement with the Federal Election Commission over allegations of coerced campaign contributions.
Three former officers of the Indiana-Kentucky Regional Council of Carpenters, formerly known as the Kentucky State District Council of Carpenters, forced union employees to make political contributions to federal candidates.
The FEC investigation also found that union employees were required to work candidates' campaign offices under threat of job loss.------------------------------------------- posted 7:11 AM :: reference link ::
