Maritime unions back shipping bill supporters in Cleveland
Local maritime labor unions joined with the Cleveland Port Labor Council to urge Congress to back a pending shipping bill. The measure would stop overseas shipbuilding by U S companies, grant a 100 million subsidy, and curb waivers of the Jones Act. James Unger of Boilermakers Local 358 and Martin Vittardi of CPLC led the effort, with participation planned from Paul Blanchette and others.
