Lowell Sun publishes Erlich piece

Posted by NERCC on January 20, 2012 at 01:17 PM

A little over a week ago, the Lowell Sun ran an opinion piece by Ron Cogliano, head of the Massachusetts ABC, a nonunion contractor association. The piece was spurred by NERCC bannering activity and negative media against CTA Construction. Cogliano used his piece to try to defend CTA and bash unions. Unfortunately, all of the negative information about CTA was completely true, as several newspapers have reported. Today, a piece by Mark Erlich sets the record straight for Cogliano and the rest of the Sun's readers.

Erlich's piece, as well as others about CTA and Pulte is being shared with attendees at this weeks Massachusetts Municipal Association's Annual Meeting and Trade Show in Boston, where the New England Carpenters Labor Management Program annually sets up a booth.
