Locked-Out National Grid Workers Protest In Lowell

LOWELL, MA - JULY 10: David Monahan, center, who was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in his bladder a week before the lockout and is scheduled for surgery in a few weeks, participates in a protest with other locked-out National Grid workers outside the National Grid facility on Rock Street in Lowell, MA on July 10, 2018. As the lockout at National Grid stretches into its third week, 1,250 out-of-work gas employees around the state are grappling with the loss of income and health insurance following the utility companys decision to bar employees from working when contract negotiations stalled. At the same time, the unions representing workers say that safety violations are piling up as contractors and managers fill in for locked-out workers.
