‘Union Day’ brings union leaders, exhibits to Statehouse
More than two dozen labor unions from across the state are at the Capitol today and have booths set up in the 2nd floor rotunda; they represent firefighters, iron workers, electricians, sheet metal workers, postal workers and more. Leaders of 30 union locals met with lawmakers this morning as part of the event; they'll also host lawmakers at a "meet and greet" at the Basque Center tonight from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m.
It's also "Business Day" at the Legislature; the Boise Metro Chamber of Commerce hosted lawmakers at a noon luncheon and presentation today.
