Longview ILWU Has Tentative Settlement With EGT Terminal
A tentative settlement has been reached between the ILWU in Longview, Washington, and the grain terminal operator EGT. The battle has been long and bitter, with several hundred arrests of ILWU members and their families, police brutality and the use of the coast guard to protect the interests of the private company.
Details of the agreement, as usual, have yet to be released
