Labor Mobilizing to Win

Gene Lantz, Digital Organizing Committee on Friday, April 12 - 12:40pm

Rain or shine, labor supporters will rally at 10AM Saturday, April 13, at 1408 N Washington. We expect to continue hitting the streets and telephoning to mobilize voters until working families win the elections on May 4th. With food and festivities, it’s a pleasant road to victory.

Everyone can contribute in some way. Those who cannot consult with Political Director Lorraine Montemayor on Saturday may contact her at [email protected] or 214-448-1557 to individualize the work of winning.

Labor Must Defeat Money!
