This is only Email I sent to Sen. Specter:
Sent June 6, 2009
Dear Sen. Specter,
You are the latest of a long list of Elected Officials to be contacted since The Boilermakers Local 154 purchased the Mobile Home Park in which I reside. The name of Pittsburgh's Oldest Mobile Community is Alpark Terrace.
Immediately after purchase Local 154 hired an attorney to compose and send a letter to all residents to 'vacate' by Sept. 30, 2009. There was never any attempt to negotiate any kind of settlement.
I was recently moved by comments of Supreme Court Nominee Sotomayor and similar remarks made by President Obama. Those remarks are contained in an email which is pasted below. (Against the Free Choice Act)
It is my hope that the President of the Boilermakers International, Newton Jones will intervene and insure that the financial harm inflicted on the residents of Alpark Terrace by Local 154 is minimized. I thought you should be included because of the possible political fallout or the opportunity to act as a peacemaker.
Truly
xxxxxxx
Alpark Terrace
Pittsburgh, Pa 15216
And, received Sen Specters reply today, July 13, 2009...over a month later. Does that mean someone in Congress actually reads their Emails? Proably not....
