Support Con Ed Workers To Keep Our Power On
Submitted by kallos on Mon, 07/16/2012 - 12:00amTomorrow, Tuesday, July 17 at 5:30PM at 4 Irving Place off 14th Street, please join me, City Council Speaker Christine Quinn and the New York City Central Labor Council in a rally to support more than 8,500 Con Edison workers who have been locked out of their jobs for more than 2 weeks since July 1.
Public safety must be the top priority. We survived one heat wave, with injuries to three managers. With 95 degree weather in store for New York City in the coming days Con Edison must end the lockout in order to avoid any possible economic or physical injury let alone fatalities that could result from short or long term power loss.
Con Edison has stopped reporting power outages. If your power goes out and you still have smart phone service please tweet the location with the hashtag #BlackOutNYC
