Local 157 Members Vote Yes To Microphone

President D'Errico voted no to a microphone
At the November 15th union meeting members sent a loud and clear message to the leadership and voted yes to a motion for a microphone to be put in place so members can hear each other clearly.

On October 15th and November 15th, the Local 157 executive board twice voted no to a written request for an open microphone.

Despite the boards two previous decision denying the request, the membership decided they had enough with the boards silly decisions and overwhelming voted to support the motion for a microphone.

“The executive board is out of touch with the members and its rather pathetic they denied a request for a microphone,” said a carpenter who attended the meeting.

Since 1999 the local always had a microphone for its members to use. It was taken away by president elect Lawrence D’Errico in a special September 2008 election, following an emergency supervision ordered by General President, Douglas McCarron over the Local.

    D'Erricco has always been mob up.that is why he only knows how to act one way. If he doesn't change, he will only take himself down.

I would ask that if you would like to leave a comment that you think of Local 157 Blogspot as your online meeting hall and that you wouldn’t say anything on this site that you wouldn’t, say at a union meeting. Constructive criticism is welcome, as we all benefit from such advice. Obnoxious comments are not welcome.
