[olympiaworkers] Solidarity Action with Sanitation Workers

OWLS is an open, multiracial, multicultural group of labor activists
formed to forge solidarity across union lines, and to promote the
unionization of all workers, especially the lowest paid.

Dear friends,

We know you support the efforts of sanitation workers in King County to
gain a fair contract with Waste Management. Below is an event to show your
support and help out if you can. If you can't make it (or even if you
can!) please also help spread the word.

You can also learn updates and actions at trashwatch.com, teamsters117.org
or teamsters174.org. OWLS will also continue to send updates and post them
on our website. If you want to get a call in the event picket lines are
needed, just send us an email at owls@riseup.net or call Linda at 819-2279
or Mike at 354-8753. Also let us know if you can help make calls!
In solidarity
OWLS
