Union Boss Worries About Privacy
Yesterday, union boss John Kane expressed outrage about this photo we ran showing the signs on his lawn for the Republican-endorsed candidate in the Aug. 4 special election for the vacated 161st State House seat.
Kane is the business manager of Plumbers Union Local 690 and was the Democrat candidate for the 26th District State Senate seat last fall.
He was singing a markedly different tune about “privacy” and protecting children a year ago when a law was being debated that would do exactly that.
The bill, HB 1154 of 2013, would have prohibited union members from “harassment, stalking and threat to use weapons of mass destruction” activities now actually allowed by union members if it is part of a job action.
The bill was submitted after a female Post Bros. executive named Sarina Rose could not get a judge to stop union members from following her into restaurants and TAKING PICTURES OF HER CHILDREN AT THEIR SCHOOL BUS STOP.
In March 2014, Kane called this kind of crap “an essential right”.
HB 1154 died after it was gutted in the State Senate due to union lobbying.
The man the Republican Party picked to fill the 161st seat is cut from the same cloth as Kane.
Fortunately, there is a choice in the race as Penn Delco School Director Lisa Esler is running a write-in campaign and has a very good chance of winning.

Perfecseal Workers Failed By Union
The Perfecseal plant at 9800 Bustleton Ave., Philadelphia, is being closed and its equipment being shipped to Wisconsin, according to Philly.com. 
About 200 union jobs will be lost.
The plant was opened about 60 years ago and acquired by Wisconsin-based Bemis Healthcare Packaging in 1986.
The Philly equipment will be used for an upgraded factory in the new right-to-work state. About 160 jobs will be created in Wisconsin.
Bemis, a publicly traded company with rising profits, has shut factories in Brazil and Mexico along with ones in Minnesota and Ohio to bring the work to the Badger State.
