Brothers and Sisters-
Please join me on the bus to Indiana to support workers in that state on Thursday March 10th. We are leaving at 6:30 AM from across the street at Teamster City (300 S. Ashland) and will return around 6:30 PM that night.
The seats are free and these solidarity mobilizations are really enjoyable!
If you would like a seat on the bus, send me an email: susanh@jwj.org!
For this reason we will NOT be meeting on Thursday March 10 at 1 PM for our regular organizing meeting.
Reminder: We will still be canvassing the unemployment office at 8750 S. Stony Island on Monday March 14th at 8 AM. If you can join us, it would be much appreciated.
In Solidarity, Susan
