This morning, approximately 15 workers from Ironworkers Local 40 set up a picket line outside of the White Plains High School property to protest the use of non-union labor performed by Stronghold Industries, a subcontractor working for general contractor UniMak, on the addition to the high school. Protestors are not blocking any entrances to the school, and all students arrived safely this morning. The White Plains Police Department was notified, has made contact with picketers, and will have extra patrols in the area to monitor the demonstration.
