_____________________________
A few weeks ago, hundreds of you came together to support Sterling Laundry Workers trying to form a union in Washington, D.C. Now let us come together and help workers in Iraq with their fight. The fight for workers to win the freedom to form unions - free from fear and intimidation - is a fight that has no borders.
A USLAW delegation met with leaders of two Iraqi trade union federations and Iraqi workers in Baghdad last October. Since that time, U.S. forces ransacked a federation office, destroyed equipment and stole files.
We're raising funds so the next delegation can give much-needed money to the two federations. Money raised will go to organizing and outreach to Iraqi workers facing privatization of most Iraqi industries.
If you can't attend but would like to make a donation - please send an email to Mary at mwatters@fpsassoc.com.
All proceeds go to the USLAW Iraqi Solidarity Fund, sponsored by USLAW -- U.S. Labor Against the War.
Event sponsored by Solidarity DC, CODEPINK, USLAW, DC Labor Committee for Peace and Justice and the Metropolitan Washington Central Labor Council, AFL-CIO.
****** PLEASE FORWARD TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS*********
