Duryea, Luzerne County -

If you want to know what these Schott Glass workers want to hear from Senator Barack Obama just ask Kathy Perhalla who's worked here for more than thirty years.
Senator Obama came with the outline of his plan to do that. He said it's all about creating a climate for change. It's a change workers like Louis Zuzelski are willing to buy into.
Senator Obama states what can make an immediate impact, "We're going to stop giving tax breaks to companies that ship jobs overseas and we're going to give them to companies like Schott that are investing right here in the United States of America. That's just common sense."
That's a message workers like John Mchale want to hear who has worked at Schott Glass for thirty nine years.
