Niagara Falls, NY - Members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 237 picket outside the Tulip Corporation expansion project at the corner of Highland and Beech Avenues.

Press Release:

The IBEW is having a peaceful job action against OSC. Governor Cuomo has done a great job to keep the Tulip corporation here and train the 81 obs and create 10 new jobs. When the Mayor had an opportunity to help insure that my members from that community would be employed he turned his back on us. OSC has decided to give the job to a Lockport contractor.
