Pay Raise Suit Filed by 2000 Electricians in KC Area
A lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court seeks a $1 per hour raise for about 2,000 construction electricians under Local 124 IBEW Missouri and Kansas contracts. The suit targets the Office of Emergency Preparedness, the Cost of Living Council and the Greater Kansas City NECA, arguing Nixon’s wage freeze is vague and discriminatory. Attorneys say the raise would add about $30 weekly per electrician and that contractors could save $50,000 to $75,000 weekly during the 90 day freeze.
