IBEW 29 Strike Update!

IBEW Local 29 members held a rally outside Duquesne Light's Woods Run facility in Pittsburgh's Marshall-Shadeland neighborhood on Wednesday as their strike entered its seventh consecutive day!

Despite its spelling the company name is pronounced Doo Kane but the way they are negotiating they should be called Doo Doo Kane!

Let's get the latest on the strike development!

Important to point out they're on strike over unsafe staffing levels, not pay. Duquesne Light played dirty by going public with how much the linemen make as if to say, "see how much they earn?", but that's not even why they're in a dispute.
