Union Made in Allentown


There was a time in Allentown when the label Union Made, or Made in USA, referred to a product, now it's a pandering politician. Although the City has yet to secure a developer for the proposed office building and hotel on the arena block, the Administration's hand puppet, the ACIDA, announced that all construction will be union done. Morning Call reporter Scott Kraus notes that the construction unions contributed over $36,000 to Pawlowski in 2011. When the construction is completed, nothing will be produced in these new buildings. There are no union jobs in these new buildings, instead, people stick their McDonald's wages into slot machines, look at art or toothless skating Canadians. The rat pictured above, visited Reilly's City Center Development Company this past summer. If the chosen private developers will also be required to use union construction, has yet to be announced.

  1. Mike, When does the newly formed authority, that includes Rep Mann, as a member take over the Arena Project.

  2. dear citizen 6:31, no questions or public input is sought or needed for such decisions. that authority is supposed to approve the chosen private developers. i think the actual construction stays with ACIDA

  4. I hate reading all the articles constantly appearing in the The Morning Call crying and wailing about a lack of money for the public schools, a lack of money for this entitlement, a lack of money for that welfare program ...

    ... knowing full well there is, apparently, more than enough money to fund a $ 160.0 million dollar Palace of Sport.

    CITIZEN,
    PEOPLE's DEMOCRATIC CITY WITH NO SPENDING LIMITS
