Hypocrisy of union fighting Prop. 45 is on plain display (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As it fights Proposition 45 — a modest ballot measure that would make it easier to build desperately needed housing and other essential projects in California — one of the state’s most powerful labor groups recently was simultaneously negotiating a backroom deal in the Legislature to get even more aggressive reform enacted to build a sports stadium. Why would the State Building and Construction Trades Council of California oppose reform in one instance but embrace it in another? Power. Environme
