Still in testy negotiations, the 20,000-member Chicago Laborers
Union District Council has voted to strike Chicago-area construction firms on June 1 if
bargaining efforts fail to produce a contract. The union last struck area
construction firms for eight days in 1991. Its contract expires at
midnight May 31.
