Local 19 was out at the Public Ledger Building in Philadelphia standing up against Baycrest Properties & Management and the continued erosion of area wages and standards.

When developers and contractors undercut established wages and benefits, it hurts more than the workers on one job, it lowers standards for working families across our communities.

Local 19 will always stand up for fair wages, strong benefits, and the American worker.

Pictured LtoR: Members John Barzeski, Paul Hardy, Zach Miller, with Assistant Business Manager Jerry Gontz.

Accountability is very important to me. When I do wrong I apologize and try to be better. Erasing someone's service is wrong. Veterans deserve better. Our district deserves better.
