Unions in action
As if my buddy Rummy does not have enough Huns fomenting at his gates:
- Ten labor unions representing 300,000 civilian employees of the U.S. Department of Defense filed a federal lawsuit yesterday against Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, saying Rumsfeld's department violated the law by refusing to negotiate changes in its labor-management system.

About 4,000 Navy employees in Philadelphia will be affected, said James Winward, an engineer and vice president of Local 3 of the International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers in Philadelphia. "This system threatens their pay, job stability and unions," he said.
