Drive by the administration building for the Princeton Public Schools and it’s hard not to miss the giant inflatable rat sitting on top of a pickup truck, its arms extended and its teeth jutting out.
The local chapter of the Laborers’ International Union of North America has placed the giant rat on Valley Road in Princeton to protest a contractor’s use of non-local, non-union labor for a renovation project at Princeton High School.
According to the union, contractor DCG Construction is not using local workers for demolition and concrete work at Princeton High School. The work is part of the recent bond referendum. The union argues that the district could make hiring union workers a requirement in contracts.
