In more than a dozen states, working families are coming together to face down attacks on good jobs and the right to bargain for a middle-class life. You’ve seen it in Wisconsin, where more than 100,000 people flooded the Capitol in Madison multiple times. You’ve seen it in Indiana, where protests against anti-worker legislation have continued for a month—and as a result we’re winning on many issues in Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio and plenty of other places.
Whether you were directly involved in worker uprisings or not, you are a part of our movement. These huge efforts were made possible because of the solidarity of people like you, acting together.
We need your help to keep the movement going and growing. We’ll keep giving you opportunities to do it—we hope you’ll take us up on those opportunities as much as you can, and also find ways to get involved in your own way. One way you can show your friends and neighbors that you’re part of the nationwide movement for good jobs and workers’ rights is by purchasing a We Are One lapel pin or button.
You’ll be able to wear your support with pride, and it will help us grow our movement—all but the actual cost of your pin or button will be a donation to support massive mobilization efforts by workers who are fighting for their freedom to bargain for a better life.
As you know, the right to bargain collectively for a voice at work and a middle-class life are under attack as never before. So we’re combating these new threats with unprecedented solidarity. April 4th is the anniversary of the assasination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, (April 4, 1968) in Memphis, Tenn., where he was helping sanitation workers gain a voice at work and the right to bargain to realize their dream of a better life. On that day and the days surrounding it, working families across the country will be organizing numerous solidarity actions. Together, we’ll stand with working people in Wisconsin, Ohio and dozens of other states where corporate-bought politicians are trying to take away the rights for which Dr. King gave his life.
