Mayor Walsh is drawn into federal labor probe
A sweeping federal investigation into allegations of strong-arm
tactics by unions has triggered a wave of subpoenas to union leaders,
developers, and Boston City Hall staff, bringing scrutiny to Mayor
Martin J. Walsh’s administration and his work as a labor leader before
taking office in 2014, according to people familiar with the inquiry.
At
issue in the investigation is whether labor officials threatened
developers and business people who hired nonunion workers on their
projects. Walsh, though apparently not an early focus of the probe,
became drawn into it through wiretaps on which he was recorded in 2012,
saying he had told a development company it would face permitting
problems on a planned Boston high-rise unless it used union labor at
another project in Somerville, according to people familiar with the
tapes.
