Re: Petition to support full-scale downstate gambling-Empire Casino
_________________________________________
Empire City Casino by MGM Resorts is asking for support from the Building Trades to help get petitions signed by our membership supporting full-scale downstate gambling. With this support they are hoping to get the moratorium on full scale gambling lifted before the 2023 expiration date.
When this happens, they will expand their facility and have agreed to do the construction work under a PLA with the Building Trades
The following link is for the online petition.

Greetings from Business Manager Jeffrey J. Loughlin
Welcome to the website of the International Union of Operating Engineers Local 137.
Local 137 represents the Operating Engineers in the counties of Westchester, Putnam and parts of Southern Dutchess. Operating Engineers operate and maintain heavy equipment such as cranes, loaders, backhoes, excavators, forklifts and bulldozers which help build the roads, bridges, tunnels, buildings and infrastructure that keep our great nation moving ahead.
Currently our members are working on one of the largest infrastructure projects in New York State and the nation, the new Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge, formerly known as the Tappan Zee Bridge. We are also manning the DEP Water Tunnel Project in Dutchess County.
There are other major projects underway in Dutchess County, including the new Vassar Brothers Medical Center in Poughkeepsie, NY. and the Cricket Valley Power Plant in Dover, NY. We expect these projects to provide our members with steady employment as well as making substantial contributions to our funds. We are also patiently waiting for the rebuilding of our infrastructure, which will require the skilled talents and services of Operating Engineers.As always, we are united in solidarity and proud to be Operating Engineers.
Please review each tab to learn more about Local 137 and if you have any questions, please contact our new web manager at webmaster@iuoelocal137.com.
Thank you,
Jeff Loughlin
