We have many actions coming up in the next few weeks. These are THE two events in the next few days that Community turnout and participation are key to make successful. If there are only two events you can make it to, have it be these two. Also, sign the Principles for a Responsible Real Estate Industry as another way to show your support. Here are the 3 action items:
1. This Saturday at the Arlington Street church in downtown Boston , the members of SEIU 615 will decide whether to authorize a strike if needed at the end of the current contract. Immediately after this historic vote 615 will do what we do best, take to the streets! Please join us as we march through downtown and the Back Bay to show the cleaning companies our strength and community support. Gather at the church at 1:00.

Through the solidarity of community and labor a better Boston can be achieved. Lets continue that solidarity in the coming weeks as we struggle for the rights of low wage janitors to achieve a better life.
