Correction: A local CBS affiliate in Alabama recently reported that non-union crews were turned away from aiding in New Jersey. We showed you a clip from their show.
It appears their reporting was false. Utility crews from Alabama were not turned away from aid work by unions in New Jersey. http://bit.ly/VQVdfx

“It’s been the worst nightmare possible,” said Vinny Accetta, a Staten Island resident from the flooded Midland Beach area. He, his wife, Devon, and their toddler twins are staying with relatives seven miles from their home. Eight days after Hurricane Sandy, Accetta is still waiting for FEMA to come and assess the damage to his home. After the hurricane, he was given a case number by FEMA. Now he waits in the cold.
