Union to protest at opening of Bass Pro Shops By Alana Roberts, Las Vegas SUN
This isn't the first time the Carpenters Union has protested a new business' grand opening. The union announced indefinite protests of the Hofbrauhaus beer hall at Paradise Road and Harmon Avenue when it opened earlier this year. The union protested the restaurant's use of Pete King Drywall as a subcontractor.
He said the pickets aren't part of an organizing drive to unionize the companies. He said the protests are meant to raise public awareness about the subcontractors' pay practices and the fact that Bass Pro Shops used them.------------------------------------------- posted 7:04 AM :: reference link ::
