IECO Rebuttal Letter

As you are well aware, IECO sent out a letter to all licensed electricians in Oregon this past October.  The letter was full of falsehoods and misleading statements about the IBEW.  For those that did not receive the letter it can be viewed here.

Local 280 has written a  rebuttal to this letter refuting IECO's claims.  The print in Black is quoted from IECO's letter, and BLUE print is our response their inaccurate data.
