The senator spoke to about 250 union strike supporters at the town hall hosted at the Crapo Park bandshell. The UAW Local 807 union workers have been on strike since May 2 at the Case New Holland Industrial plant. Senator Sanders' appearance gave new hope to the union workers. (Burlington Hawk Eye)
