Our union has contracts with more than 300 different employers, and it is easy to say the least turnover, the most stability, the most worker satisfaction is with Kaiser Permanente, without a doubt.

Sal Rosselli

About 90 percent of employee say they would recommend Cox. We don't think a union would benefit anyone at Cox.

John Wolfe

Since the court will not take swift action to order union officials to inform union members of their rights, this informational campaign will help pick up the slack. Union officials have been fighting tooth and nail to keep teachers in the dark. They naturally fear a revolt from teachers opposing the union hierarchy's extraordinary $60 million campaign this fall.

Stefan Gleason

The fact is that they [Blue Man Group] brought in a law firm to fight us on negotiations and the election. Unfortunately, the law firm is very anti-union. And they have a large group of lawyers on their payroll.

Tim Mcdonald

If a large number of staff decide to join a union, we'll continue to represent them.

Kyle Dippery

While relying on its own research and development, China also actively participates in international cooperation. The European Union is one of our most important partners in the field of nuclear power development.

Ma Songde

Violence against minorities has increasingly become a problem in Serbia today. Serbia cannot hope to move closer towards the European Union unless it starts taking these attacks a lot more seriously.

Holly Cartner

These days the Civic only makes sense if it's a sell-out show. I'll take a show to the Civic only if I'm really confident I can sell at least 1,500 tickets because the in-house union is real expensive.

Michael Horn

The FOP is a fine fraternal organization, but when it comes to negotiate a contract, we are the Teamsters union, and that is what we are experienced at. They can go there to drink beer and have parties. That's fine.

Jimmy Neal

We're very pleased to see both the shipping lines and the union recognize Alaska's unique dependence on shipping, ... Everything from the Sunday funnies to election pamphlets were affected by this lockout. There is no rail line and only one highway, and it would cost about twice as much and take considerably longer.

Bob King

I definitely saw some holes in the plan and obviously the student body did, too. The union needs to handle itself like a corporation and find ways to trim costs.

Rhonda Tubbs

The Anti-American Criminal Liberties Union.

Mark Hyman

It's interesting how at odds we were then with the Soviet Union.

Scott Carpenter

The union walks away in the sense they don't have the legal fees, but the small employer faces large legal fees.

Anita Drummond

What this does is it squarely puts the decision with the employees. Not with the city, not with the politicians, not with the union, not with us.

Len Wolman

This is a union that knows how to prepare a strike and knows how to win.

Kate Bronfenbrenner

If [Bush administration officials] were referring to Niger when they were referring to uranium sales from Africa to Iraq ... that information was erroneous and ... they knew about it well ahead of both the publication of the British white paper and the president's State of the Union address, ... Meet the Press.

Joseph Wilson

They have to realize it'd be biting off their own nose to strike, ... I'm sure the union is using the financial situation for leverage. They know they have the company over the barrel.

Jim Corridore

Yes, I can see that having yet another small state complicates decisions in large groups like the European Union. But I am also certain that the people of Montenegro have a right to decide their future and we will be better off independent.

Milo Djukanovic

It has no enforceable standards to stop a union from conspiring with employers to keep another stronger union out or from negotiating contracts with lower pay and standards that members of another union have spent a lifetime establishing.

Andrew Stern

This list and the films on it are meant to be scrutinized and criticized, dissected and collected, viewed and reviewed. They are the literature of our industry and the legacy of our union.

Patric M. Verrone

My opponent called me a cream puff. Well, I rushed out and got the baker's union to endorse me.

Claiborne Pell

It is time for everyone to sit down - the NCAA, the NBA, the players union and the coaching fraternity - and come up with suitable solutions to these problems.

Dick Vitale

Once subsidies are withdrawn it's no longer economical for the farmers there to export. Internationally you are having the two exporters -- Brazil and European Union -- reducing their exports and therefore we think international prices will remain strong.

Shyam Bhat

Our goals are very simple. We want to educate all of our members on the most recent illegal activities of our union. We want to 'right the wrongs' that have occurred and we want to make sure that this can never happen again.

Trent Klatt

We think Western Union will be more nimble on its own.

Mark Weber

Union negotiations will play a critical role in the plan's success, and even with the health care concessions, it is not clear that a sense of urgency and shared pain exists at the UAW.

Craig Hutson

I can't quite understand what the value of union representation would be if the university doesn't want to recognize and bargain with a union.

Russ Williams

The mechanics' union is quite weakened by its isolation, ... If they had the support of the other unions, especially the machinists, which represents the largest number of employees at Northwest - all the baggage handlers and gate agents - they really could have shut the airline down.

John Fossum

This case is about a teacher who did something she knew was wrong and she got caught red-handed, ... Her punishment was fair and even her union agreed.

Gregory Miller

For one thing, he's highly qualified because he's been around Van Buren for so long. He's doing the right things, (Union is) just young. I told him the other day to stick with it, because when they get into conference, all this competition is going to pay off.

Matt Coleman

I don't want to hold the public hostage. We're union but we're not crazy.

Gilles Hallé

There are lots of formal obstacles in terms of the European Union policies, but the real barriers are cultural, ... People who have been basically fighting each other for the past 2,000 years are now expected to merge.

James Ross

As engineers, we have a different perspective. If a company really wants to get its product to be the best in all areas, then it must listen to all sides. A union is the best vehicle to carry the engineers' perspective.

Charles Bofferding

I'd rather have the United States be the world's policeman than the Soviet Union be the world's jailer.

Aleksander Solzhenitsyn

This is what President Clinton called for in the 1994 State of the Union address, ... and we delivered.

Reed Hundt

We don't think it's our place to tell employees they should or shouldn't belong to a union.

Debra Decourcy

At Western Union, we look for opportunities to benefit our customers, and we're excited to offer this first-ever $1 million promotion to all of our customers in the United States. Whether they are recent immigrants or established American citizens, The Million Dollar Giveaway is a great way for us to say thanks to our valued customers.

Tom Mcdermott

It's good to see the players union moving in the right direction. However, it remains to be seen whether this proposal is strong enough for members of Congress.

Rob White

The two sides are far apart. The company's second offer shows no significant improvements on our top issues - pensions, health care and job security. The union is currently analyzing their offer and will immediately begin working on a counterproposal.

Connie Kelliher

When you participate as a party in an NTSB investigation, the rules are that only the NTSB releases any information. (The union) violated those rules.

Lauren Peduzzi

More than 50,000 union members would be involved in the (planned strike) action. We are indeed ready to strike.

Randall Howard

We don't try to pretend that we're doing this just out of the goodness of our hearts to protect Wal-Mart workers. And this isn't just about protecting taxpayers. It's also about protecting good union jobs in the retail sector that are disappearing because of Wal-Mart's business model.

David Groves

This is totally unfair. I am disappointed and surprised at the vehemence directed at the electoral board by the European Union election team.

Kemal Bedri

This is not a union or non-union issue. This is a West Virginia bill for West Virginians.

Andy Mckenzie

We're elated that these workers, who have sacrificed so much and who have been so dedicated to winning a voice and winning a union, will go back to work with their heads held high, winning a breakthrough for immigrant workers throughout the country.

Stephen Lerner

One way or another, the labor issue will be resolved; this should pave the way for Northwest to reach its savings goals with the other union groups.

Michael Linenberg

Increasing union demands on hotels across the country will harm the industry, erasing the progress the tourism industry has made to rebuild after Sept. 11.

Kathy Shepard

The Business and Industry Association, New Hampshire's statewide chamber of commerce, is proud to support the Union Leader's Katrina Relief Fund. Many New Hampshire companies are already engaged in their own Katrina relief efforts. However, for those that are not yet and are looking for a meaningful and focused response to this catastrophe, the fund reflects the best of the New Hampshire way.

Jim Roche

Those American Civil Liberties Union persons up there are not concerned about me at all. So they are not really the American Civil Liberties Union are they? Because they don't give a darn about what has happened to my constitutional rights to property.

Pat King

You can find a lot of things that are made in America, ... Clothing, toothpaste even. When we go out to eat or shopping, we try to spend our money in ways that are union-wise.

Steve Jacobs

ALLIANCE, n. In international politics, the union of two thieves who have their hands so deeply inserted in each other's pockets that they cannot separately plunder a third.

Ambrose Bierce

A sitting member of the United States Senate had the power to foreclose on the home of the head of the largest public workers union in the state. That is one of the largest conflicts of interest that we've ever heard of.

Bruce Afran

She's gone, yes she's gone. She should now be in Moscow. As far as I know, she flew out right after the disciplinary committee of the International Biathlon Union took place.

Vladimir Vasin

Because the date is connected with Turkish progress towards the European Union.

Tassos Papadopoulos

We have a graduate in every state in the union and eight foreign countries.

Jim Haughee

I look forward to continuing our discussions with the Palestinians and with the Israelis and also to staying in very close touch with others in the international community -- the European Union, the U.N. secretary-general, Russia, Egypt, Jordan and others.

William Burns

Delphi is telling the bankruptcy court that if nothing changes in terms of their union agreement, they won?t have money to pay their light bill by the end of 2007. So there?s definitely going to be a need for changes.

George Anthony

And we should not associate in this way with countries like Ethiopia until and unless they respect trade union rights and international conventions.

Dennis George

The union requirements are that he remains on staff and continues to receive his salary until the issue is resolved, ... There is an appeals process for the employee.

Patrick Moore

The union is like having herpes.

John Mackey

They're spending money like crazy on this new Student Union.

Matt Williams

Five weeks ago you were unfairly sacked by a ruthless, union-busting employer, but I can assure you that the battle goes on.

Tony Woodley

This judge, believe me, does not want to go down in history as the judge who adjudicated the termination of the Delphi union contract and brought down General Motors.

Jim Mctevia

After a review of all the candidates and a careful look at the record of the governor's first term, it is the belief of this union that Rod Blagojevich deserves our support in the primary.

Jim Dougherty

We believe our new branch location in Hopkinsville offers an environment that makes it easier to bank with Fort Campbell Federal Credit Union.

Tom Kane

Cohen introduced legislation forcing Temple to drop their legal battle against the student union.

Jennifer Murphy

One of the highest-ranking union officers in the state is given a half-million-dollar gift by a sitting U.S. senator. That is precisely the type of transaction the Senate wants to know about.

Bruce Afran

Until we reach and ratify collective bargaining agreements with United to address the effect of this merger on employees, it is not in anyone's interest for this transaction to go forward, ... The failure of United to provide written job protection dramatically increases the possibility of a strike by members of the Machinists union at United Airlines.

Robert Roach

Union members understand that MRSA is everywhere, but here in the prison it has become an epidemic.

David Morales

This has drawn an attention to the AFL-CIO - for whatever reason that they brought it up. It's definitely pointed a light at the AFL-CIO. People are looking at the benefits of union representation. Certainly, it's great press.

Jim Leaman

To secede from the Union and set up another government would cause war. If you go to war with the United States, you will never conquer her, as she has the money and the men. If she does not whip you by guns, powder, and steel, she will starve you to.

Sam Houston

We hope that as the evening wears on, we will have enough to govern with the Christian Democratic Union ... if not we will remain in the opposition.

Guido Westerwelle

[When the first part of the summit meeting took place in Geneva two years ago, many participants feared that the United Nations itself, through the International Telecommunication Union, wanted to govern Internet issues.] Today, ... the ITU is off the table.

Milton Mueller

Anna, whatever you do, stick to the union. It's what makes a difference for working people like us.

Anna Burger

It's good to see the players' union moving in the right direction. But it remains to be seen whether this is good enough for members of Congress.

Rob White

Union jobs are particularly good because they come with high wages and a package of benefits.

John Huggins

There is a strength in the union even of very sorry men.

Homer

We left here Friday afternoon and had no indication that our jobs were in jeopardy. We're one of the few union plants that Bemis has, but we've always had a good relationship with the company so it wasn't a labor problem.

Larry Watruba

We're trying to monitor this as much as we can. It's always difficult, because we don't know if a big anti-union company is going to buy these stores. We will put pressure on whomever ends up buying them. It's an unfortunate fact in the grocery business that things are in flux.

Aaron Lindemann

The African Union has formed a standby force aimed at ensuring quick intervention in conflicts arising within the continent.

Defense Minister Njenga Karume

Every community has its stars, and in the community of Hillel in the former Soviet Union, Chaplin was definitely a star, ... Everybody knew him.

Rabbi Hillel

I think our players can walk with their heads up high. This is a young football team. We want to build on this like Mount Union has done over the years.

Bob Berezowitz

These things are usually just a laundry list. Whether it was Clinton or Bush, it's mostly just what's on his mind. But this was a more modest list, even than some of his own past State of the Union addresses.

Chester Spell

Some people who enter into a union later in life could benefit.

Brent Gibson

Some of the things proposed were not workable or acceptable to the corporation and similarly some of the proposals were not acceptable to the union. So it's interesting that Mr. Amber chose to highlight one rejection.

Jason Macdonald

We strongly believe that our union with Guidant is the only one that can deliver and create lasting value for shareholders of both companies.

William Weldon

In order to get some return you've got to have some coordinated effort from the city, county, PR (public relations) groups, whatever, to get this Union district up to speed. Other than that, we think we're a good steward and we're doing all we can.

Tom Mckenna

The Klan is needed today as never before and I am anxious to see its rebirth here in West Virginia. It is necessary that the order be promoted immediately and in every state in the Union. Will you please inform me as to the possibilities of rebuilding the Klan realm of W. Va.

Robert C. Byrd

First Union doesn't have much of a currency to get into a bidding contest.

George Bicher

I have seen the future; and it works. (Following a visit to the Soviet Union in 1919).

Lincoln Steffens

The Union - It is dear to us, but liberty is dearer.

Duff Green

The union would agree to terminate the strike after the 24-hour period and agree further in writing not to again strike over information relating to the company's proposed health care plan.

Tom Donahue

If you didn't get the letter or you're not sure . . . call the benefits manager for the former employer or union.

Judy Clark

He would like Britain to take a leading role in the affairs of the EU, and to lay to rest our ambivalence about membership of the union.

Chris Patten

It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union.... Men, their rights and nothing more; women, their rights and nothing less.

Susan B. Anthony

The union put this entire thing into motion. Whenever you engage in an illegal strike ... they have to understand that there are certain people that it's going to affect their safety, namely firefighters. These people have to get to work.

Christopher Mcgrath

Working people are under the worst attack in 80 years. Never has there been a stronger need for a stronger union movement.

John J. Sweeney

The employer should have some rights to hire a qualified applicant. In the current law the line is very fuzzy. The law gives deference to the fact that merely because they (the candidates) are union affiliated they (employers) should give deference to them to protect their organizing activities.

Anita Drummond

The U.S. government's agreement with Starbucks represents a major victory for the right of Starbucks baristas around the country to join a union.

Daniel Gross

We have to live together and make the best of it. They should eventually be permitted to join the European Union. A Europeanized Turkey is in everybody's interest.

Costas Karamanlis

We were looking for real people. The Bush campaign has never signed an agreement to use union actors.

Ray Sullivan

I'm very pleased with the overwhelming response from the union members. I've gotten numerous phone calls and e-mails from people who are happy with the new contract.

Cindy Williams

Last week I fulfilled the pledge that I made in October by establishing an irrevocable $25 million escrow account at Union Bank of California for the benefit of Global Crossing employees who invested their 401(k) plan in company stock.

Gary Winnick

The fund opens during the run up to the Union Budget and closes well after it, giving investors a choice to invest as per the Government's allocation for infrastructure in the budget.

Naresh Garg

Union leaders aren't talking about wages and benefits because they know our offer is generous and fair.

Patty Hefner

Agreement has now been reached that negotiations on Turkey's accession to the European Union can and will begin in the very near future.

Jack Straw

I agree that Albertson's was very poorly managed, but it would be a miracle if this helped (union) members. Chances are 9 of 10 that new owners will have tremendous pressure to reduce cost.

Mark Lilien

We call on President Bush to uphold the commitment to American economic competitiveness that he made in the State of the Union address by vetoing this bill and pushing for more affordable student loan policy.

Luke Swarthout

We intend to go ahead and honor the labor contract going forward until the assets are sold. The active bidders at this point --- two I know of --- both intend to go forward with the union. This is not in any way intended to abrogate the union contract and get away from that at all.

John Titler

Dolly Parton has been a union member for 30 years. We don't understand why a company that has her name on it would object to its employees being recognized by the union.

Glenn Harris

We do have one other individual allegation of a country, a country that is a member of the European Union. We are trying to conduct a surprise visit there.

Lotte Leicht

Ladies and gentlemen, tonight, the European Union has opened its door to Turkey.

Jose Manuel Barroso

There has been a steady and significant change in the interaction between us. I think he accepts the union and its role.

Kevin Durkin

A tough 24 hours. I think everybody today, they support Lear, they support all the union workers and they're just glad it went this way.

Pattye Stevens

It's a fair compensation package, ... It called for very little language change, and the Fire Department was very cooperative. Union members handled themselves in a professional manner, and I hope this is a show of good things to come.

John Barrett

Union is going to be tough. They're undefeated and ranked fourth in the state. We're looking forward to playing them.

Bruce Bailey

We have made enough progress over the past two days that the union is willing to continue working while bargaining goes on.

George Becker

The students were genuinely concerned about this. I was proud of the way they behaved themselves, not that I condone skipping school. The [state teachers' union] says you can bring in a 100 people and it won't make any difference, but I think it did last night.

Tim Marchant

This lawsuit has served to bring into clear focus several issues regarding our regulatory procedures, particularly the need for full and fair disclosures to members. NCUA will continue to evaluate our regulations and processes to make certain that we satisfy our congressional mandate to administer the member vote properly when a credit union seeks to convert to a mutual savings bank.

Joann Johnson

We are awaiting a formal response from the union. We expect that in the very near future.

Rob Manfred

Of course the host of the summit will be the president and in our opinion (the host) should have been the president of the African Union too.

Amr Moussa

Both management and union labor realize that things must change in order for us to grow and prosper. Our sector of the industry will not let this decline persist. There's too much at stake.

Michael Cullinane

From Chirac and Schroeder we have seen a rhetorical commitment for France and Germany to co-operate but when they have combined it has been to block reforms. They have not produced an actual agenda for advancing the union, unlike the days of Helmut Kohl and Francois Mitterand, when France and Germany really were driving Europe.

Julie Smith

We tried to be very conscious of making them look like they came from the same credit union.

Angi Fangman

We wanted to do things and do them well, such as replacing the stairs and paying for the cost of utilities in the Student Union.

Sga President Basheer Benhalim

Most of the people, especially those who haven't been at Ford very long, are meeting with the union and finding out where they're at on the totem pole.

Jason Murray

XXX: State of the Union.

Ice Cube

The European Union door is shut and the Iranians have thrown away the key. This was a symbolic slap in the face for the Europeans.

Ali Ansari

As a thrift, they can go anywhere, take a deposit from anyone and the lending restrictions are a lot less than for a credit union.

Bob Freedman

This is the last link in the corridor. We want Fillmore to look consistent from I-25 to Union.

Robin Kidder

I think they're in a stronger legal position but not an absolutely solid legal position. The question is: Are these players part of the union?

Mark Conrad

He didn't specifically tell us that we shouldn't be doing it, which we took to mean that we had at least some underlying support in the CUPD, who are union members.

Wes Hannah

We work with union and with nonunion films. We talked with Cameron (Romero) about his movie ('The Screening'). We have a file on that.

Dawn Keezer

It's really tougher to organize today because the laws are a barrier. There are miserable laws we have to use to organize and the political atmosphere is anti-union.

Jack Shea

This is a very activist union movement, ... Because they can't mobilize people within companies, they often have to go into the streets.

Guy Groux

The union guys are saying they don't know anything. I find that hard to believe.

Gene Collins

The issue people most identify with him is his gift to a union leader. This is a very easy ethical problem to understand.

Sherry Sylvester

We are still struggling with the demons of that movement, ... We are still trying to build a more perfect union. The reason this commemoration means so much is because I think God has greater plans for us still.

Artur Davis

Honestly, it's all about supporting him and Virginia Union. And I love the games. They're fun. It's all I've ever known.

Cheri Robbins

We think that based on current legal limits, based on what the European Union study is going to come up with, it will be possible for us to have a conversation, a dialogue with Bolivia about what a legal harvest could be.

Thomas Shannon

We made progress during talks this week. While the company and the union still have differences to address, UPS remains committed to continue negotiations until an agreement can be reached.

Bob Lekites

Right now, health care is the issue, because the company, in the form of its CEO, Rick Wagoner, made a big spectacle at the shareholders' meeting last month. They're saying we're in this big crisis. My question, and most of the [union] leadership's question, is, show us the crisis. Where have you been spending the money?

Dave Peterson

It's going to be a great learning experience for Josh. I know Josh is going to return to the program and not only have a successful career here, but be a much better student and earn his Union degree.

Nate Leaman

We opted to go to Canada to get married as opposed to go to Vermont to get a civil union because we believe in marriage, marriage does matter.

Robin Butler

A key component of President Bush's claim in his State of the Union address last January that Iraq had an active nuclear weapons program -- its alleged attempt to buy uranium in Niger -- was disputed by a CIA-directed mission to the central African nation in early 2002, according to senior administration officials and a former government official.

Walter Pincus

I feel good about going back to work. I needed this job to survive. Hopefully, this will open some eyes at the plant and people will see the union is there to help them.

Mike Flores

It's going to take a lot of things going our way. If Crescent City or Pierson Taylor could pull an upset (of Keystone), that could help us (in the finals) ? if we beat Union County.

Jeff Finch

Should the trend continue in terms of innovation in the 25 European Union member states the innovation gap we have been seeing in the last year between Europe and United States for example will not close.

Gregor Kreuzhuber

Faced with potential competition from China and the European Union , the United States wish to maintain their superpower status and therefore must preserve their ties with oil-rich (Arab Gulf) states.

Taher Masri

The Soviet Union model of what a Communist country is supposed to look like doesn't work for China. China has unbridled capitalism.

James Green

I believe that it's going to tell a lot about our football team. To me we're kind of on a bubble. We haven't' reached that level where we think we need to be to compete. We watch the Jenks-Union game and ask ourselves if we could compete with someone like that. Right now the answer would probably be no.

Dan Cocannouer

This is a more militant union that most public sector unions. These workers face on a daily basis far more difficult working conditions than the standard government employee. The workers as a group feel management is too heavy-handed. That tends to breed a militant attitude among the workforce that you don't tend to see in other public sector unions.

Richard Hurd

Most people know ahead of time what they need to buy and with a little planning they can make a day of it. By combining trips they can go to the exchange, the bank or credit union, and dry cleaners - and make the commissary the last stop so they can head right home with their groceries.

Patrick Nixon

With most of the African Union against them on this, it may be very difficult for them to resist.

Richard Goldstone

It has united the trade union movement in a way that we have not seen in many, many years.

Mark Serwotka

Technology and the European Union have opened up the telecommunications market. Without a new institutional framework, any changes within the company are being built on sand.

Ceo Panagis Vourloumis

We have a first case of bird flu. It's H5. The virus type has to be confirmed in the (European Union) reference lab.

Cathy Maret

When you combine the men and women deployed from our military installations with activated reservists and members of the National Guard, Georgia is contributing more personnel to the theatre than any other State in our Union.

Georgia Govsonny Perdue

I can't imagine anybody in Union County is more important to their football team than Derrick Laney is to Sun Valley. If somebody's having a better year than him around here, I haven't heard about him.

Scott Stein

Terrorism is an evil that threatens all the countries in Europe. Vigorous cooperation in the European Union and worldwide is crucial in order to meet this evil head on.

Jan Peter Balkenende

The impact in Brazil, especially for the poor people, would be immediate if the European Union allows access for our agricultural products. The more intense the trade flow, the more benefits we will get.

Fernando Henrique Cardoso

It was a chance to serve the town I grew up in. It is an honor and privilege to keep serving the people of Union Beach.

Robert Baird

Qwest and the union continue to bargain in good faith.

Bob Toevs

This desperate attack has more holes than a pasta strainer. This is another paid attack by union critics.

Sarah Clark

This means that if 54.5 percent of voters in Montenegro want independence, then we remain in union with Serbia and a minority wins over the majority. This does not seem fair to me, but we fully accept the proposal of the European Union.

Milo Djukanovic

We hope this signals a breakthrough, and we look forward to discussing with the union the steps that will enable the ports to re-open.

Tom Edwards

China's a socialist country and, like in the Soviet Union before us, many subjects cannot break through in this system.

Cui Zi'en

If the union loses on this one, ... it may not be a watershed comparable to the air traffic controllers strike in 1982, but it would be a big setback.

David Olson

In Waterford, 95 positions are being eliminated through a combination of attrition, retirements and voluntary job eliminations. There will be 50 union-represented positions eliminated, resulting in 10 layoffs.

Maria Moreno

For people who do not have a union on the job, we provide a way for people to speak out on issues that affect working families.

Karen Nussbaum

The extent of the wage and benefit reductions Delphi is seeking would be difficult for any union to swallow easily.

Mark Oline

I am lucky, ... that the popular sport in the Soviet Union was chess and not baseball.

Garry Kasparov

It's an initiative that had been taken without consulting the (quartet) partners (United States, Russia, the European Union and the United Nations), but it is within the framework of goals and principles we fixed for ourselves.

Denis Simonneau

We see no basis for resuming negotiations. We are operating under a contingency plan implemented after the union decided to strike.

Bud Grebey

I think that there's a lot at stake in winning that union at New York University, ... It was the only graduate student union at a private university, and I think winning back that union and protecting that contract gives graduate students at other institutions the hope that they can have a union too.

Mary Reynolds

I think it's rather ironic these are the accusations management is making, when in fact union density is quite low nationally, ... If the law was so weighted in favor of unions, then we wouldn't have the situation we face today with a significant decline in union density across the country.

Kent Wong

I'm certain that (the mechanics union negotiating committee) will reject it if we haven't (already) because it falls well short of what we need. They have failed to even start addressing some of our needs.

Steve Macfarlane

We'll work that out with the union.

Katie Mcbride

We make our views known before the State of the Union each year.

Jim Backlin

In the United States alone, 350,000 Jews live below the poverty line and benefit from our dollars. In the former Soviet Union, 240,000 elderly people need our help just to have shelter, heat and food.

Gary Wagner

We have become weak as a union, giving in to a series of rollbacks and buy-outs at a time when the entertainment industry is recording record profits; profits that will continue to grow with new technology, ... If we truly expect to earn our livings as actors, we need to stand up and fight for a fair and livable wage.

Alan Rosenberg

We played with much more intensity tonight than we did last night (a 49-15 loss to Union Grove). We kept our heads in the game, and that kept us in the game. I think we played with confidence.

Wendee Warg

I don't care what the union says until they come back to work.

George Pataki

The transit union set the entire day in motion by having an illegal strike.

Christopher Mcgrath

That fact could have been ascertained with one phone call to our offices. If that accusation is representative of the quality of the research in this report, I think we can reasonably conclude it's not worth the paper it's written on and the union should ask for its money back.

Doug Bailey

The union didn't agree with the demotion, or we wouldn't have taken it all the way to the Supreme Court.

Jeff Winters

It's particularly ironic that teachers are being forced to pay for the union's opposition to a referendum to give teachers a choice about whether the union can spend their money for politics.

Stefan Gleason

All of our affairs, since the union of crowns, have been managed by the advice of English ministers, and the principal offices of the kingdom filled with such men, as the court of England knew would be subservient to their designs.

Andrew Fletcher

Doctors are upset, they are angry and they are frustrated. We are getting calls every day to join the union.

Louis Simpson

The idea of remotely monitoring and controlling catering equipment over the Internet isn't new. But nobody succeeded in doing it. Our plug-and-play software and hardware is a major step forward, with the potential to reduce cases of food poisoning in the European Union by more than 113,000 annually.

Stephen Read

But if that sum is not enough, we will seek alternative resources. I think that we will also turn to the European Union.

Jiri Paroubek

The Union has become an important force of peace in the international arena.

Huang Ju

I think they will talk to rugby union. You can't blame him for asking what the bottom line is.

Peter Doust

We were certainly not happy with the situation. We are happy the Baptist Student Union is working with him, and really, there is nothing else to say.

Curtiss Long

Clearly, the dividend cut was overdue. It's interesting that it only finally happened when (Jerome) York joined the board. The 50 percent dividend cut in the eyes of the union is a necessary action, it had to happen.

Sean Mcalinden

In the Soviet Union, errors led to popular discontent among other reasons due to the bad performance of the economy.

Francisco Soberon

The Quartet - the United Nations, the European Union, Russia and the United States - must move past their formal meetings. The Security Council must go beyond presidential and press statements after its monthly meetings on the Middle East and the Arabs must do more that what they are doing now.

I think the season is done. I don't see how this can be resolved next September. Their strategy is to break the will of the union and impose a salary cap and I don't think that's going to work. I'm convinced there won't even be a training camp next year. They are going to try to delay this as much as possible. We are telling players who want to play in Europe to get ready and find work over there.

Vincent Damphousse

This is a small union, and it doesn't have any allies, because it's kind of a pariah in the labor movement.
