Loss of Contracts Prompts Layoffs at AFL Web

AFL notified the N.J. Department of Labor in accordance with state law and the federal WARN Act.

The newspaper quoted Patrick LoPresti—president of the Local 1-L of the Amalgamated Lithographers of America—as saying the layoffs were prompted at least in part by the loss of a contract to print the Metro, a free newspaper for commuters in Philadelphia and New York.
