Comments from Plumbers and Pipefitters Local 32
"This is exactly the kind of comprehensive legislation that our leaders in Washington, D.C. must pass - legislation that creates quality jobs, provides opportunity for ordinary Americans, and puts U.S. industries at the global forefront of the burgeoning clean energy sector." -- Phaedra Ellis-Lamkins, Executive Director, Green for All
"The Editorial Board [of a local paper] told us that we were a flash in the pan - that we would ultimately fail in our attempt to effect change in our communities on the Agenda for the Common Good issues.
But we did not fail.
We came together as mothers and fathers . . . sons and daughters . . . as neighbors.
We rolled up our sleeves and worked diligently to express our values. Now we must join together once again to carry this difficult work forward."-- Dusty Hoerler, Plumbers & Pipefitters Local 32
