Small neighborhood printers very often are family run and operated small
businesses, who only employ family members and are non-union.
But being non-union is their choice -- Family members are permitted in unions, after all.

They also
should be able to print material as a donation to a candidate.

I see nothing
wrong with a legitimate business making a legitimate contribution of
printing labor.
Maybe you see nothing wrong with this, Jim, but the County Attorney sure would! Minnesota law specifically prohibits such business contributions, whether in-kind labor or actual cash contributions. Also, all the printing jobs that have been mentioned on this list recently are well above the legal limit for contributions to a City Council Candidate.

Jim Graham,
Ventura Village - South Minneapolis but still affected by who the 3rd Ward
folks elect. (So do a good job)
