Busloads of Vermont Yankee employees, many of them IBEW Local 300 members, converged on the State House yesterday. It was great to see the voices of the workers represented there to counteract the loud opposition of the anti-nuke crowd that has an almost daily presence in Montpelier. We certainly respect those with other views, but one thing should never be forgotten: JOBS. And the union ones at Vermont Yankee pay a family-sustaining wage and solid benefits.
Here are some media clippings:
'Employees of Vt. Yankee urge support for plant' (05.05.09, The Times Argus)
'Vt. Yankee Supporters Rally' (05.05.09, WCAX-TV)
