![What would happen if PG&E sold its gas business or filed for bankruptcy? - Los Angeles Times](https://www.latimes.com/resizer/xhJQ8l-iFQVhZtJ3oG-2vtWI8FI=/1200x0/arc-anglerfish-arc2-prod-tronc.s3.amazonaws.com/public/J7QOBUEFIVBZPMLSEZFJFXMK7Y.jpg)
Another obstacle is organized labor, a politically powerful group that is already objecting to a potential sale. The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers represents more than 12,000 PG&E employees, roughly 3,000 of whom work on the gas side of the business. Tom Dalzell, business manager for IBEW Local 1245, said a sale of PG&E’s gas assets would be “a long and complicated process with many opportunities for our members to lose something,” from retirement benefits to career options.
