Striking Spectrum Workers on George Washington Bridge (Video)


On August, 25, members of IBEW Local 3 marched on the George Washington Bridge in protest of what Marvin Billups, a construction foreman with IBEW Local 3, described as "an effort to to starve us out and make us return to work under a contract that removes $30,000 in health, welfare and retirement benefits, annually and per member, and charge us an additional $10,000 per year for health benefits that provide significantly less than our current plans due with extremely high deductibles."  

Additional information on the ongoing strike is available here.  

The video was published on YouTube on August 27.
