Stand With Wisconsin Workers!! @ CA State Capitol 2/22

Wisconsin Workers Are Under Attack!

STAND WITH WISCONSIN WORKERS!

JOIN US ON TUESDAY FEBRUARY 22ND!
5:30pm at the State Capitol West Steps in Sacramento
Join us for a candlelight vigil.

Rallies. Crowds spilling into the streets. Seas of people marching together in solidarity. Every day this week, nonstop.

This isn’t happening in Egypt...but in Madison, Wis.

Schools are closed. Workers, high school and college students, community members, religious groups and concerned citizens have dropped their daily lives to rally against Gov. Scott Walker’s Draconian attacks on middle-class jobs and his proposal to strip Wisconsin teachers, nurses, social workers and other public employees of their collective bargaining rights.

Walker’s immediate attack is aimed directly at some 200,000 public workers—but the brave men and women taking to the streets come from every walk of life and recognize that all working people—public and private sector—are in jeopardy. And they know that if we don’t all speak out and stand together, we’ll all be targets.

We've started a Facebook page where we all can post messages of support and solidarity for the protesters in Wisconsin--and all workers who are under attack in states across America.

Gov. Walker crossed a line with his Draconian plan, followed by an announcement that he had alerted the National Guard to be ready in case workers strike or rise in protest.

The last time the National Guard was used against public workers was the Postal Workers strike in 1970. The last time the Guard was called out in Wisconsin to quell a labor dispute was the 1934 Kohler strike by the UAW.

In Wisconsin, the workers who are under attack--and the communities that know and respect them--created such an outcry that all 14 Democratic members of the Wisconsin state Senate left the Senate chambers in protest, indefinitely delaying a vote on Gov. Walker's anti-worker bill.

This is the kind of strength it takes to win--we need to raise our voices whenever and wherever attacks on workers occur. When we stand in solidarity with each other, we cannot be silenced.

Please show your support for workers who are under attack in Wisconsin and across the country:
