RICHARD W. BLOOMINGDALE

125 years later, as eyes across the country turn to see what union members have to say in certain upcoming elections. But Labor Day is not about politicians. Labor Day is about what working people have achieved over decades and centuries of collective action. Labor Day is also a reminder of how far we have to go in the pursuit of economic justice. Today, the American economy works for the wealthiest of the wealthy, while telling the rest of us that this system is our greatest “opportunity” to succeed. The reality is this system is designed to impede the freedom of workers, decimate the social contract and undermine our solidarity with one another via divide-and-conquer tactics.

Regaining Our Power

Labor Day should be a call to action to all working people. Power has been stripped away from workers, the majority of Americans who fight in their own way every day to make a better life for themselves. Unions are the balancing force in the economy. But decades of corporate-funded special interest attacks on labor law have had dramatic impacts on union density and the ability of workers to organize and join unions. The union movement has come together in support or the PRO Act, the Protecting the Right to Organize Act, to fight back against this

tilted economic system. The PRO Act addresses labor-law reform on three fronts: enforcing and deterring violations of workers’ rights, strengthening the right to organize and negotiate for fair wages and benefits, and increasing transparency regarding labor rights. It’s time for workers’ rights to be respected under law. Currently, the National Labor Relations Act does not authorize the National Labor Relations Board to assess monetary penalties on employers who have violated workers’ rights, nor is it required to intervene immediately when a worker is fired for trying to organize a union. Workers even lack the ability to seek justice in a court of law when employers violate their NLRA rights; their only avenue for remedy is the NLRB. The PRO Act would ensure workers’ right to be heard in a court of law, require the NLRB to take immediate action when workers are fired for organizing, and prohibit employers for holding captive audience meetings, where workers are required to attend meetings designed to bully and sway workers from joining a union. In some sectors of our economy, jobs are being created, good-paying ones even, in advanced manufacturing, energy construction, tech, etc. But public education and workforce development have been neglected and deprived of investment and innovation for too long. We need a strong pipeline of trained, highly-skilled workers to keep up with the present economy, not to mention the jobs of tomorrow. It’s not enough to talk about jobs if we aren’t educating and preparing people for those jobs. (Cont. Next Page)

Bloomingdale: Labor-Law Reform is Urgent (Cont. From Prev. Page)

Taking Care Of ALICE

This summer, the United Way of Pennsylvania introduced our Commonwealth to ALICE. ALICE stands for asset-limited, income-constrained employee. In other words, people working fulltime who struggle to make ends meet on a survival budget and are one significant, unexpected expense away from financial ruin. ALICE are working families struggling to afford necessities and pay their bills. Moreover, ALICE is above the federal poverty line. ALICE lives in every one of our 67 counties. We see ALIICE every day of the week.

ALICE takes care of our children at daycare. ALICE prepares and serves our food. ALICE is 24% of Pennsylvanians; too many of us have been, or are, ALICE. Thirty-seven percent of Pennsylvanians, more than 1.8 million people, are either below the poverty line or ALICE. Wages are not keeping up with the cost of living, even while unemployment is at record lows. We haven’t made it easy for workers and those about to enter the workforce. Student debt in Pennsylvania is the worst in the country. And even though history tells us that low unemployment should raise wages for all workers, that simply is

not the case. Labor Day is a reminder of the power of collective action. For centuries, this country’s workers have fought for better conditions on the job, the respect for civil rights and a more just society. We have incredible power when we come together, in our workplaces and our communities. Nothing will change if things are allowed to stay the same. While the fundamental goal of the union movement has not changed in the years since Gompers answer, neither has the source and method of that pursuit. Richard Bloomingdale is president of the Pennsylvania AFL-CIO.

them on the picket line, the dockworkers’ strike had become the Philadelphia General Strike of 1835 – and City Council promptly passed a law establishing a 10-hour workday for the City government’s employees. That 10-hour day became the standard for all workers in the city. Because of this legacy, unions are woven into the fabric of our city. Philadelphia’s unions have raised over $3 million to fight cerebral palsy in the 30 years of the All-Star Labor Classic basketball festival. Union members lead nonprofits, advocacy organizations, church boards, and youth sports leagues. As a young man, our mayor, Jim Kenney, was a member of two unions. And as our city’s top elected official, he’s personally stood with workers demanding fairness from our city’s major employers. He’s used his authority to help Philadelphians by demanding fairness from construction companies, from employers at the airport, from the largest hotels in our city – and leading by example in bargaining fairly with the City’s employees. The involvement of unions in every part of our community is another reason that Philadelphia a good

BY PAT EIDING grew up in Kensington and have been a union member all my adult life (with a few years serving Uncle Sam the only exception). As a member of Insulators Local 14, I worked on construction sites as far away as Atlantic City, Pittsburgh, and upstate New York. I’ve been lucky enough to be able to travel all over this country, and all over the world. And wherever I go, when the subject of Philadelphia comes up, someone will say: “Philadelphia? That’s a good union town.” Sometimes it sounds a bit like a slogan – “The City of Brotherly Love,” “The City that Loves You Back,” “A Good Union Town,” that kind of thing. But I think it’s more than a slogan. What does it mean to say that Philadelphia is a good union town? Part of the meaning relates to our history. In 1794, shoemakers in Philadelphia formed the Federal Society of Journeyman Cordwainers – the first formal union in our new nation’s history. In 1806, the union’s leaders were put on trial for “conspiracy” – that is, forming a union and going on strike for higher wages – and despite a vigorous defense, they were convicted and ordered to pay a fine. But Philadelphia’s workers continued to stand together to better their lives. In June 1835, dockworkers went on strike for a 10-hour day. Other unions downed tools and joined the strike, demanding the same 10hour day at their workplaces. When workers for the City of Philadelphia joined

my is rigged for the wealthy and well-connected. We have seen executives publicly threaten employees who try to organize. In Mississippi, we recently saw hundreds of undocumented workers rounded up by Immigration & Customs Enforcement, many of whom were separated from their families, with zero accountability for the firms that hired them. Working people in the United States, especially young people, are hungry for collective solutions to common problems. That has led to the greatest interest in unions in decades. We see this playing out week after week in the newsrooms of the next generation of media outlets. In August, nearly 60% of Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh librarians, library assistants, clerks, and IT professionals voted to organize as United Steelworkers. Indeed, at a time when greedy corporate interests are trying to portray unionized labor as a relic of a past that is in need of technological “disruption,” it is the youngest generation of workers coming up – our children – who are more aware than ever of the raw deal this new world is offering, and who are demanding the fundamental rights that the founders of American labor established nearly 140 years ago.

BY ARTHUR STEINBERG his Labor Day, we celebrate the working people of not just Pennsylvania or the United States, but of the world. In an age of an always-connected society, it is easier to see now more than ever how much of the world rests upon workers’ shoulders. Our fears are amplified through social media, but so are our hopes and dreams. A little over a year ago, many pundits, economists, politicians, and anti-worker groups believed they had finally delivered the death nail into public sector unions in the Janus v. AFSCME decision. While the United States Supreme Court – now more anti-worker than it has been in a generation – may have put a temporary dent in our spirits, it reignited a hunger for collective bargaining in our country. Since last summer, many of our unions have defied the odds by gaining dues-paying members. My own local, Philadelphia Federation of Teachers Local 3, increased our percentage of dues-paying members from 96% in 2018 to 99% in 2019. Our brothers and sisters in other public-sector unions have had similar success. These numbers are a testament to the persistence of our members and organizers. Earlier this year, it was a labor union – the Association of Flight Attendants – that threatened a strike, forcing the president and Congress to avoid a second government shutdown. Throughout the course of the last three years, the American people’s eyes have been opened to the naked corporate greed that exists in our country. Our econo-

CAN PARTY CHAIRMAN LAWRENCE TABAS. RCC CHAIRMAN MICHAEL MEEHAN introduced Tabas. Tabas is a resident of Philadelphia and is partner at the law firm of Obermeyer Rebbman specializing in health care issues. Tabas is also known as one of the best election-law lawyers in the commonwealth. He served as general counsel of the PAGOP for over a decade working for three different PAGOP chairmen, most recently retired insurance executive ROB GLEASON. Tabas sees his role as uniting the party going into the presidential election in 2020 as Pennsylvania may be a key state to PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP being re-elected. Tabas pointed out that while 2019 as an odd year, meaning that there are no elections for governor, the other row offices or State legislative seats, that we will be electing two important State appellate judicial positions in

November. Our candidates for two open seats on the Pennsylvania Superior Court are Cumberland County Common Pleas Court JUDGE CHRISTYLEE PECK and Chester County DEPUTY DISTRICT ATTORNEY MEGAN McCARTHY KING. The two candidates, who are running as a team, stated in their comments on Sunday that they believe their role as justices is to interpret the law and not legislate from the bench. Tabas pointed out that this is a clear departure from the Democrat-controlled Pennsylvania Supreme Court. The Democrats on that court in 2016 redrew the U.S. congressional seats in a manner that was clearly political. In Pennsylvania, as in most states, the drawing of legislative districts is done by the legislature. Tabas believes that in the shadow of the Supreme (Cont. Page 30)

ness is actually pretty tight knit … and the person with whom you had a bad breakup could very well wind up being your next boss. It’s also a really good piece of advice that someone should have given to now former Philadelphia Police Commissioner Richard Ross. Ross resigned from his office as the city’s top cop. A week after Mayor Jim Kenney proclaimed him the Best Police Commissioner in America, he was issuing a statement saying that it was best for Ross to leave. So naturally, the conspiracy theories began to flow. What is Ross being blamed for? They’re coming after him because he got rid of some of the cops involved in the Plain View Project Facebook page scandal. You name it, I’ve heard it. But when the word got out that the reason Ross was leaving was because a sexual harassment lawsuit had an addendum put on it that accused the former commis-

sioner of slow-walking the initial complaint because one of the complainants had broken off a two-year affair with him, stuff changed. That tends to happen when someone accuses you of retaliation. While Ross wouldn’t talk about the suit itself when he met with reporters the day after his resignation, he did address that particular charge. “In 55 years of life and 30 years of law enforcement, God and everyone who knows me knows I have never targeted or sought retribution on a person, personally or professionally. So I take serious umbrage with that part of this issue.” But while Ross and Kenney acknowledged that this change needed to happen, and Ross himself even said that he’s thought about stepping down more than once recently because the job was wearing on him, that didn’t stop the Bill Cosby Tabernacle Choir from weighing in.

More people live in cities, for the first time in history; many are poor and have little hope. I have met or known every commissioner since the late, great Joe O’NEILL. I only met Ross once, and in those moments felt an energy of caring emanating out from him. We suffered a real loss – but the quick appointment of career cop Christine Coulter as interim police commissioner was an inspired and flawlessly logical choice, and she should have a shot. The TIOGA SHOOTING left a wasteland behind. The citizens were left with little guidance on how to recover. City multi-agency teams

ought to be working with neighbors there. Needed help with insurance coverage or home repair and loss of income. Give these folks back their vehicles taken as evidence – or compensate them, relief agencies. GET GOING! Two GOP candidates for president oppose Trump. Is one a SHILL? Mr. Scaramucci says that many GOP members feel a need for Trump to go but are “afraid to come forward.” Maybe. Trump says that Scaramucci is unstable; but Trump and he were fast friends once.

STACK was seen chatting with HANNA MONBLATT and former STATE SEN. and super lawyer BOB ROVNER. Trial attorney AL DRAGON and his wife BARBARA chatted with DAN SULMAN, the former Common Pleas Court judge who was appointed this year to the Board of Revision of Taxes. Dan’s sister is 53RD WARD LEADER JANICE SULMAN. She is one of the most likable ward leaders in the city. Among the Maier family in attendance were Judge Maier’s lovely wife LANA, daughters KATIE and BETH, and son DOUG as well as many other members of the Maier clan. City Hall Sam would like to stop writing about Philadelphia DISTRICT ATTORNEY LARRY KRASNER – but it’s been impossible. The culprit who barricaded himself in a house with the automatic weapon causing six officers to be shot and a

neighborhood to be placed in lockdown is acting like the victim. And the district attorney is allowing this. He’s claiming that the incident will take six months to investigate and alluding to police misconduct. Excuse me?! The perpetrator was an urban terrorist who could’ve murdered many more had the police not responded so quickly and bravely. The neighbors are the victims and the guy who shot up their neighborhood and police should go to jail for a long time. What the heck happened with COMMISSIONER RICHARD ROSS? Granted, he did not handle the previously mentioned situation perfectly, but he was a nationally recognized law-enforcement executive. He generally did an outstanding job as police commissioner. But now he leaves in disgrace without any chance of having his version heard regarding improper alleged (Cont. Page 27)

of those workers – and of those victories, too. This coming Monday, Sept. 2, is Labor Day – a holiday and a time dedicated to celebrating organized labor and honoring the courage and solidarity of generations of American working people who’ve built our nation’s labor movement. As I have for the past 15 years, I’ll be proud to lead the Tri-State Labor Day Parade up Columbus Boulevard from the Sheet Metal Local 19 Union Hall to Penn’s Landing. Tens of thousands of union members of every kind of background and descrip-

tion, members of over 60 unions in every industry and workplace you can imagine, will march in that parade. For centuries, Philadelphia has been a city where working people stand together for justice and equality and fairness. To me, that’s the essence of what makes Philadelphia a good union town. I’m proud to be part of that heritage, and proud to celebrate that heritage – and to renew our commitment to be a good union town – on Labor Day.

Between a President who exploited working people’s fears about their economic security and then has time and time again tried to pull the rug out from under them, and a State legislature here in

Pennsylvania that is bought and paid for by wealthy anti-worker special interests, we are at a crossroads. Those of us in the labor movement may not always agree with each other on ev-

ery issue at every moment. But to protect all the victories we - and those who came before us - have fought so hard to achieve, and to win the future for working families, we must stand together and

speak with one voice. As we march today, let us remember all those who put their comfort and security on the line to give us the rights we enjoy and think about what we are willing to

sacrifice so that every worker in America is treated fairly and with respect. Arthur Steinberg is president, AFT Pennsylvania and treasurer, Philadelphia Federation of Teachers, Local 3.

For every PASNAP and 1199c worker at Hahnemann, for every Marriott worker fighting for a union, for every SEIU parking attendant and healthcare worker demanding justice, for every PFT teacher and staff member improving our schools— our office stands with you in the fight for organized labor and working families.

Brooks may hope to make inroads. In South Philly’s 1st & 2nd Wards, for example, there are now virtually two parallel ward organizations. Each ward has an official committee headed by young progressives as well as an alternative committee headed by bluecollar traditionalists.

Left-leaning activists have less incentive to unite with party leadership to ward off a dwindling threat from the right. They see no harm in defecting from party loyalty, which, by definition, calls for Democratic leaders to support all Democrats in a general election. Gym is not alone. 9th Ward Democratic Leader State Rep. Chris Rabb (D-Northwest) expressed qualified support for Brooks’ candidacy. And there are other liberal wards where

As of November 2017, the number of registered Republicans in Philadelphia fell below the number of voters registered as independents or with other minor parties. As Republicans recede, increasingly there emerges intraparty Democratic conflict within what is essentially now a one-party city.

EVERYDAY PEOPLE (Cont. From Page 20) (The Bill Cosby Tabernacle Choir is that group of people who thinks that every time a powerful Black man gets in trouble, it’s due to some sort of conspiracy.) The whole “What about [fill in random White dude]” chorus was in full voice and after a while, I remembered why I’ve blocked certain people on social media. While I consider my spaces havens for free speech and thought, there’s only so much ignorance and misogyny I’ll allow. Let me help you out, folks. Just like Bill Cosby is in jail because he was out here making illegal dummy moves with women, Richard Ross is no longer Police Commissioner for doing the same. No, he didn’t sexually assault anyone. No he didn’t sexually harass anyone. But because he also was

out here having sex with his subordinates, Ross put himself in a position that following my friend Rob’s rule might have kept him out of. And that’s because the whole “We’re all grown adults” thing doesn’t necessarily apply when it comes to relationships in the workplace. For example, I’m engaged to marry a fellow reporter that I met at a journalism conference. If he and I worked together, which we kind of do now, we’re at the same level. He’s a reporter and I’m a reporter. Same rank. But if either of us became an editor, and had the power to fire the other person, it would get sticky. That’s because we’re no longer equal, and one could force the other to do a variety of things with the threat of losing one’s job hanging overhead. I’m going to give Ross the benefit of the doubt here and assume that he didn’t retaliate against McCowan. While the section of her lawsuit that accuses him of

retaliation is pretty damning, I’m going to go by what I know of him and assume he didn’t do that. But by fraternizing with a subordinate, Ross put himself in a position that led to him making a decision about his future a lot earlier than he probably planned. Don’t get me wrong. You’re attracted to whom you’re attracted to. But when you hold another person’s job in your hands, it might be a good idea to think twice, or even three times, before acting on that attraction. Think of it as making sure that your bathroom and your kitchen are in completely different sections of the house if that helps.

this is a political hit job. But those that speculate have failed to accurately state by whom and why? Hard to see why the mayor would do such a thing. Ross and he appeared to have a great relationship. The mayor’s press conference seemed authentic. His disappointment and regret in having to accept the resignation seemed natural. Maybe a Ross deputy saw a problem and a chance to exploit it for their own personal gain.

Containing in front or breadth on said 65th Avenue 16 feet and extending of that width in length or depth Southward between lines parallel with 65th Avenue 95 feet to a certain 4 feet wide alley.

Parcel#: 108N14-134; 171356400 The sale will be held on September 10, 2019 at 10:00 AM at the Southeast Entrance of Philadelphia City Hall located at Broad Street and Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107. The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development will bid $118,124.80 plus interest, costs and other charges through the sale date. Ten percent (10%) of the highest bid is the deposit required at the sale. The amount that must be paid to HUD by the mortgagors or someone acting on their behalf so that the sale may be stayed is the total delinquent amount of $118,124.80 as of August 11, 2019, plus all other amounts that would be due under the mortgage agreement if payments under the mortgage had not been accelerated, advertising costs and postage expenses incurred in giving notice, mileage by the most reasonable road distance for posting notices and for the Foreclosure Commissioner’s attendance at the sale, reasonable and customary costs incurred for title and lien record searches, the necessary out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Foreclosure Commissioner for recording documents, a commission for the Foreclosure Commissioner, and all other costs incurred in connection with the foreclosure prior to reinstatement. There will be no proration of taxes, rents or other income or liabilities, except that the purchaser will pay, at or before closing, his prorata share of any real estate taxes that have been paid by the Secretary to the date of the foreclosure sale. When making their bid, all bidders, except the Secretary, must submit a deposit totaling ten percent 10% of the Secretary’s bid as set forth above in the form of a certified check or cashier’s check made out to the Secretary of HUD. Each oral bid need not be accompanied by a deposit. If the successful bid is oral, a deposit of ten (10%) percent must be presented before the bidding is closed. The deposit is nonrefundable. The remainder of the purchase price must be delivered within thirty (30) days of the sale or at such other time as the Secretary may determine for good cause shown, time being of the essence. This amount, like the bid deposits, must be delivered in the form of a certified or cashier’s check. If the Secretary is the high bidder, he need not pay the bid amount in cash. The successful bidder will pay all conveyance fees, all real estate and other taxes that are due on or after the delivery of the remainder of the payment and all other costs associated with the transfer of title. At the conclusion of the sale, the deposits of the unsuccessful bidders will be returned to them. The Secretary may grant an extension of time within which to deliver the remainder of the payment. All extensions will be for fifteen (15) days, and a fee will be charged in the amount of $150.00 for each fifteen (15) day extension requested. The extension fee shall be paid in the form of a certified or cashier’s check made payable to the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development. If the high bidder closes the sale prior to the expiration of any extension period, the unused portion of the extension fee shall be applied toward the amount due. If the high bidder is unable to close the sale within the required period, or within any extensions of time granted by the Secretary, the high bidder’s deposit will be forfeited, and the Commissioner may, at the direction of the HUD Field Office Representative, offer the Property to the second highest bidder for an amount equal to the highest price offered by that bidder. There is no right of redemption, or right of possession based upon a right of redemption, in the mortgagor or others subsequent to a foreclosure completed pursuant to the Act. Therefore, the Foreclosure Commissioner will issue a Deed to the purchaser(s) upon receipt of the entire purchase price in accordance with the terms of the sale as provided herein.

o! Here we go again with this question: Why do I like retire-

ment? Question: What is the best way to describe retirement? Answer: The never-ending coffee break. Question: When is a retiree’s bedtime? Answer: Three hours after he falls asleep on the couch. Question: What’s the biggest gripe of retirees? Answer: There is not enough time to get everything done. Question: What do retirees call a long lunch? Answer: Normal. Question: What’s the biggest advantage of going back to school as a retiree?

understanding BANKRUPTCY BY MICHAEL CIBIK AMERICAN BANKRUPTCY BOARD CERTIFIED uestion: What is the great computer myth on credit reporting? Answer: We need to know all the debts you owe or might possibly owe in order to put a bankruptcy case together. One mistake debtors often make as we get into deeper debt is to stop looking at the bills and notices. It’s stressful enough to have debt collectors calling, so we stop reading or keeping the bills and notices just to stay sane. If you can’t pay it, even opening

the envelope hurts a bit. But if you don’t read and keep the notices and bills, it is much harder for someone else to help you. Folks come in to see me and have no real idea who they owe now, how much, or what for. Often folks think it's OK because there’s a record somewhere of everything they owe, like there is some Great Computer that has all this information in it, and the NSA is not letting bankruptcy lawyers get at it! There are services that allow us to access your credit reports, with your consent. And you can have free copies of your credit report each year too. But your credit report is not going to help us very much in building your case for you. However, some lenders do not report to credit bureaus. Some debt may be too old to appear on your report – but still be a debt you owe. Some is just not the type of thing that pops up on credit reports – like a debt for damage to a neighbor’s car or money

31 you owe a friend. Mistakes on credit reports happen a lot more than they want to admit. A credit report will only tell us what some creditors, possibly yours, claim you owe them – not every creditor or potential creditor you could owe. If you don’t list some of your debt in your case even by accident, it can be harmful to your financial health. In the simplest cases, it just means you have to spend more in attorney fees and court filing fees to fix the paperwork filed in your case. But in extreme cases – particularly cases where some money is paid into the bankruptcy trustee’s hands from your assets or your payment plan – then the unlisted debts may not be wiped out at the end of a successful case. So even if it is physically painful to keep the bills and threatening notices from creditors, do it anyway. Don’t put your faith in the Great Mythic Computer to save you. T HE P UB L I C R E CO R D

ed to prepare her will and told her preacher she had two final requests. First, she wanted to be cremated, and second, she wanted her ashes scattered over Wal-Mart. “Wal-Mart?” the preacher exclaimed. “Why in Wal-Mart?” “Then I’ll be sure my daughters visit me twice a week.” My memory’s not as sharp as it used to be. Also, my memory’s not as sharp as it used to be. Know how to prevent sagging? Just eat till the wrinkles fill out. It’s scary when you start making the same noises as your coffeemaker. These days, about half the stuff in my shopping cart says, “For fast relief.” THE SENILITY PRAYER: Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway, the good fortune to run into the ones I do, and the eyesight to tell the difference. I think you’re supposed to share this with five or six, maybe 10 others. Oh heck, give it to a bunch of your friends, if you can remember who they are!

the WAFFLE MAN

Answer: If you cut classes, no one calls your parents. Question: Why does a retiree often say he doesn’t miss work, but misses the people he used to work with? Answer: He is too polite to tell the whole truth. I’ve sure gotten old! I’ve had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement, new knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes. I’m half blind, can’t hear anything quieter than a jet engine, take 40 different medications that make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts. Have poor circulation; hardly feel my hands and feet anymore. Can’t remember if I’m 85 or 92 and have lost all my friends. But thank God, I still have my driver’s license. I feel like my body has gotten totally out of shape, so I got my doctor’s permission to join a fitness club and start exercising. I decided to take an aerobics class for seniors. I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour. But by the time I got my leotards on, the class was over. An elderly woman decid-
