His efforts led to pioneering legislation in numerous areas, including sponsoring the legislation addressing the miners with dreaded Black Lung disease, and their survivors, a measure that was eventually adopted as federal law.\u00a0As a former miner himself, Musto was instrumental in early organizing of mine workers, leading the way for the formation of the United Mine Worker\u2019s Union.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Featured Guests<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The event will include\u00a0remarks from Pittston City Mayor Michael Lombardo, Pennsylvania State Rep. Mike Carroll, Hon Joseph J. Musto, and Father Paul A McDonnell OSJ.\u00a0 The event\u2019s Emcee\/Host will be Los Angeles radio broadcaster \u201cBanana\u201dJoe Montione, a former NE PA radio personality who is nephew of Mr. Musto.\u00a0 Montione said, \u201cI\u2019m excited to be coming back home to Pittston for this event.\u00a0 Uncle James was such an inspiration to me, and it\u2019s great to see he\u2019s recognized this way for the work he did all his life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Location<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The park is located at\u00a0 S\u00a0 Main St Downtown Pittston, and fits into the great revitalization Pittston has enjoyed in recent years. The park features a bronze sculpted bust of Musto, plaques with historical information about his efforts relative to the miners and garment workers, so important to the history of Northeast PA.\u00a0 Tables, chairs, and an overall serene atmosphere awaits all visitors to the park.<\/p>\n<p>The event will be broadcast live to a worldwide audience on Flashbacktop40.com radio audio here <a href=\"https:\/\/streamdb9web.securenetsystems.net\/cirruscontent\/FT40\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/streamdb9web.securenetsystems.net\/cirruscontent\/FT40<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-2858316 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/2-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/2-2.jpg 2200w, https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/2-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/2-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/2-2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/icrowdnewswire.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/2-2-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h4><strong>For More Information Contact:\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Joe Montione 747.999.7061<br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"mailto:joe@bananajoeradio.com\">joe@bananajoeradio.com<\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>1519 N Martel Ave<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Suite 305<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Los Angeles, CA 90046<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bananajoeradio.com\/\">www.bananajoeradio.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/heymuse.com\/new-park-to-be-dedicated-to-former-pa-legislator-area-workers-hon-james-a-musto-greater-pittston-miner-and-garment-worker-memorial-park\/\">New Park to be dedicated to former PA Legislator, area Workers: Hon.
