From The Morning Call:

Labor groups are planning to protest Saturday in front of beermaker D.G. Yuengling and Son in Pottsville. 

At issue, according protest organizers, is owner Dick Yuengling Jr.'s support of so-called right-to-work laws. 

"We find it incredibly ironic and insulting that Dick Yuengling, who became a billionaire largely because of the working class that has supported his family business for generations, now turns his back on us to side with those who are doing everything they can to do away with fair salaries, employment conditions and treatment," Lehigh Valley Labor Council President Gregg Potter said in a news release.
