A “Union Heritage” seminar will
be held Saturday, April 25, from
8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Plumbers and
Fitters Local 290, 20210 SW
Teton Ave., Tualatin. The event is
free and open to all. A continental
breakfast, and lunch will be
served.
Dennis Coplin, director of po-
litical and legislative affairs for
Local 290, will conduct the semi-
nar. “There’s a famous quote that
says ‘those who cannot remember
the past are condemned to repeat
it.’ Unfortunately, that is exactly
what workers in America are do-
ing — repeating the past,” he said.
Coplin will illustrate how the
Davis Bacon Act and the National
Labor Relations Act (NLRA)
helped create a strong middle class
in the United States, and how the
Taft Hartley Act was designed to
harm unionized workers. He also
will discuss current legislation de-
signed to destroy unions and the
middle class.
“The only way we can hope to
combat this attack on the Ameri-
can worker is to educate everyone
regarding what has happened,
who is behind the attack on work-
ers, and why,” he said.
Coplin hopes apprenticeship
classes, union organizers, and
newly organized workers will take
advantage of the free seminar.
For more information, or to
register, email Coplin at
coplin@ua290.org.
“When Do Workplace Policies
& Rules Violate the NLRA?” will
be the topic of a breakfast program
sponsored by the Oregon chapter of
the Labor and Employment Relations
Association (LERA) on Tuesday, May
5. Leading the discussion will be
Jessica Dietz of the National Labor
Relations Board.
The event will be held at the
World Trade Center, 121 SW
Salmon Street (Mezzanine Level),
Portland. Breakfast begins at 7:30
a.m., with the discussion starting at
8 a.m.
