IBEW is one of the unions in the utility company I work for. Its been fun talking to the hard-core Progs as they’ve come to realize over the last 5 years that their Marxist Messiah wants to kill THEIR job permanently. Our coal and oil units that used to be the bulk of our generating capacity and all of our baseline generation have been reduced to just a portion of our energy portfolio.
Where you stand on an issue depends on where you sit. And from where the IBEW sits, they apparently feel like they’re getting screwed. Welcome to the party, IBEW.

Elections have consequences.
For every private sector job lost to EPA regulations and fake Global Warming it should be required that two Federal Government jobs be eliminated in the Dept. of Interior, Commerce, HHS, Agriculture, DHS, HUD, etc.
Boo fricken hoo. They endorsed Obama twice, they will endorse whoever is the next Democrat nominee, and they will support every Democrat for the House and Senate.
Hope the movement goes viral. Socialists love to control everything but fail to foresee the consequences and the bigger picture; that they are being manipulated emotionally to become activists to push agendas that benefit their unseen puppetmasters.
They also strongly dissented on the Keystone pipeline. Unfortunately their campaign contributions go 100% to Democrats.

They and their brethren won the Forest Gump's "Stupid is as Stupid does" Award...
The IBEW is full of racists.
Pure definition of the phrase “useful idiots”!
Shocking.
No problem, you can sign up for Obamacare! You are not beholden to a job you don't like to get Insurance...
Too bad........ the commies... run the IBEW....
serves them right.. their greed overlaid their good sense..
What electrical workers want is whatever the commies say they want..
Hopefully most lose their jobs.. AND retirement..
Brilliant!
That’s because Obama’s putting them out of work. My electrician nephew is setting glass to pay for his daughter’s surgery.
Good for them...
Most electricians have some brains....lol (because I “R” 1)
Many linemen and wiremen at out utility have a union sticker on 1 side and an NRA on the other. Only their bosses like democRATs
