Chicago Trib confirmed the core issue: QSL workers never got a secret-ballot union election. After Local 150 filed an election petition, QSL recognized the ILA instead of letting workers vote. Backroom recognition isn't democracy. Let the workers vote. #QSL #JusticeForWorkers

ONE WORKER. ONE FAMILY. STILL NO ANSWERS. QSL waited three weeks to contact OSHA, failed to provide requested documents to a federal agency, and Harbor Police stopped returning OSHA’s calls. Meanwhile, Darius’s family is still searching for answers. QSL, IT’S TIME FOR ANSWERS.

Energy systems face their biggest challenges during extreme cold. Natural gas consistently handles peak winter demand, delivering more energy than electricity ever could. #EnergySecurity #NaturalGas #CECC

Data centers are the internet’s engine room, the physical infrastructure that makes every digital thing you do possible. Chances are that a good chunk of your life relies on data centers, and has for a long time. So, why the sudden outrage? kiteandkeymedia.com/videos/w…

Are Data Centers Wasting Water and Raising Electric Bills?

America is living in the age of data centers. One problem: Americans hate data centers. Is that outrage justified?

The planned Amtrak Midwest Maintenance Facility is important for many reasons, but one often overlooked is workforce development. Our Michael Lingl spoke at the city’s hearing this week, saying huge projects like this provide opportunity & train the next generation of workers.
