List of Unions Supporting Occupy Wall Street |
|
Edited on Tue Oct-04-11 11:48 PM by LeighAnn
I've seen it written and heard it said over and over that the Occupy Wall Street protesters are hippies, deadbeats, unemployed, fringe radicals, etc., etc.
Nope, these are hard working nurses, pilots, transit workers, the people who teach our children
National Transit Union United Steelworkers of America Amalgamated Transit Union United Federation of Teachers National Nurses United Communication Workers of America Operational Weather Squadron New York Transit Union United Pilots Union Teamsters Union Local 802 American Federation of Musicians NYC AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka L.A. County AFL-CIO
Wall Street's champagne sippers will have lots of time to think about things when they're not watching the Broadway show they've so been looking forward to tomorrow night.
And as the workers of America join the stalwarts of the movement over the coming days, perhaps Corporate America might realize for the first time that they might be staring down the barrel of a general strike.
