(Nashua, NH September 8th 2007) The United Brotherhood of Carpenters Announced Their Endorsement in Support of John Edwards for President, I Covered the Event so Fellow Union Carpenters Could View it Here on youtube. I Also Took an Opportunity to Ask Our General President a Very Serious Question Regarding Carpenter Voting Rights and Democracy within the Brotherhood.

  • live better work union !! local 2361

  • I feel everyones pain. I used to work for a regional council for almost 7 years. What they want is someone to say yes and only do what they say. Its a shame that union carpenters have lost their voice. For over 100 years, we had our right to vote and then in 1996, we lost it. Its crazy. I dont understand how its legal, and how Cash MCCarran was able to finagle this scheme. I honestly would love to hear how the federal DOL says this is legal by law.

  • I am in the Carpenters Union Council of a particular State, and Unionism is the down fall of our economy... Just a breeding ground for corruption... We are gong to bring down the Union from with in, just wait.. You Start showing people in the union to use the computer, all the union bosses (corrupt) will just have another way to lie, cheat, steal money from their own members.. I am in the union just to bring it down. Right to Work is the way to Be.

    Chucky & Richie SUCK black MONKEYs

  • B.A. 's are worthless and always

    someones son , nephew or relation

    that is in already.

  • Where I work, all the concrete workers are immigrants, they work twice as hard as AMericans and are revered by management. Yes they are card carrying union guys. And.........don't get in their way... management will come down on you.

  • McCarron, so why haven't you helped with the Chicago problem that you've been informed of?? is it greed?? the uncollected pensions?? the dues the BAs want?? your lining your pockets while the working man suffers. this is not racist, its whats fair & right for the union. the unions stand is - that it is not a company so it cannot verify legal statis or verify that a person is legally able to work in the US. THATS BULLSHIT McCarron, its time to act & do whats right. we need PICTURES on union cards

  • chicago union officals are useless Pres, Vise Pres, BAs ect. they REFUSE to acknowlege the illegal immigrants in our trade that are using fake & borrowed documents. its outrageous that the union man has to compete with illegals for jobs. McCarron has been informed but yet he does nothing to stop it. these socalled brothers should be removed. what a joke of a brotherhood we have in chicago. those in office are NOT brothers. we need PICTURES on our union cards in order to help prevent fraud.

  • $40.77 an hour are what illegal immigrants make in chicago as union carpenters. yes, they are taking union jobs & our union officials do nothing to stop it. what good are they???

  • Representative Democracy is Semantics for the fact that we do not have the right ot Vote. This includes BA's who are now all "Appointed" as opposed to having to 'Stand-Up for an Election" .

    WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP!

    The policies of this administration will ultimately result in the demise of the Carpenters Union as an Organization. You can't even get water or a clean toilet on most Union Jobs anymore, as these schmucks have lost their way.

    Restore the Right to VOTE or Resign.
