U.S. Senator Visits Bremerton – Murray, unions slam personnel system

U.S. Sen. Patty Murray, speaking to the group, blasted the Bush administration and the Defense Department for trying to take away the workers’ basic collective bargaining rights. “They’re telling defense workers, if you want to do defense work, you’ll have to surrender your rights,” she said. “That will make it harder to recruit and retain the top-notch work force that we rely on.”
