McCormick labor: We've made sacrifices

Labor unions at McCormick Place have been getting a lot of the blame for the loss of the 2012 and 2015 NPE shows to Orlando, Fla. But are they really at fault?

Jim Leahy, a third-generation member of the Riggers Local 136, responded to the charges
in the Chicago Daily Observer.

He's got a lot to say that will interest NPE exhibitors. First, he points out that McCormick unions have already made sacrifices, "like giving up double time for time and a half, or the cut in crews from three to two in the case of Machinery Movers."
Leahy goes on
