- #union #iww #occupy #ows #p2 #p21 #tlot #tcot #TeaParty Sign the Petition to Save the Postal Service http://wisaflcio.typepad.com/wisconsin-state-afl-cio-blog/2013/05/petition-postal-service.html On April 24, Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-OR) launched a “We the People” petition on the White House website. The congressman’s goal is to get President Obama to act to save the Postal Service. We can save American jobs by preserving delivery standards and ending the unfair mandate to aggressively pre-fund future retiree health benefits. Sign the petition. Recently, the White House quadrupled the number of signatures needed to trigger a response—to 100,000—and it imposed shorter time limits for collection of signatures. The deadline for this petition is THIS Friday, May 24, and thanks to letter carrier activists, more than 24,…

Eight more protesters were arrested, bringing the total for the three days to 34. A message on the HDL Facebook page Thursday said all of those arrested were released and will not face charges stemming from the protests. As previously reported, the homeowners and their allies are demanding that Holder prosecute the b…

The annual report will show that Greene, eligible for an annual bonus equivalent to a year's …
- #union #iww #occupy #ows #p2 #p21 #tlot #tcot #TeaParty Letter from the heartland: Silent factories, human pain http://www.peoplesworld.org/letter-from-the-heartland-silent-factories-human-pain/ Dear friend, After a week's vacation, I'm back now to rural Tennessee. Forgive my sarcasm, but nothing's changed here in a week. The high unemployment, the paycheck-to-paycheck population of the area, and the increasing incidence of spousal abuse, teen pregnancy and drug use (prescription and otherwise) still dominate daily life. We see this far too often in the clientele at the local food bank we operate in our small town. Up until a decade ago, a mobile home manufacturer ran two large plants here. They operated 24/7, and they provided a decent living for the workers of the area. But cutbacks and corporat…
- #UNION #IWW #OCCUPY #OWS #P2 #P21 #TLOT Who Can Stop the Koch Brothers From Buying the Tribune Papers? Unions Can, and Should http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/blogs/taibblog/who-can-stop-the-koch-brothers-from-buying-the-tribune-papers-unions-can-and-should-20130510 A few weeks ago, we did a story about hedge fund king Dan Loeb's plans to address a conference of institutional investors and perhaps solicit new clients among the public retirement funds in attendance, despite his involvement with a political lobbying group that campaigns against those very types of defined benefit plans. When stories by Rolling Stone, Washington Monthly and the New York Post came out about Loeb's affiliations, Loeb canceled his scheduled speech at the Conference of Institutional Investors and fled the event, reinforcing the simple idea that powerful interests can…
- #union #iww #occupy #ows #p2 #p21 #tlot #tcot #TeaParty In response to school closures, a new movement is born http://www.peoplesworld.org/in-response-to-school-closures-a-new-movement-is-born/ Mindless destruction. That's the immediate reaction to the vote to close 50 schools by the Chicago Public Schools Board of Education (BOE) on May 22. The BOE voted unanimously for Mayor Rahm Emanuel's plan, in reality a continuation of the same policy dating back 20 years. There was never much doubt about the outcome by the deaf, rubberstamp BOE. It is after all an unelected, unaccountable board appointed by the mayor and composed of corporate CEOs, millionaires and billionaires. The closures are the largest in U.S. history and follow similar closures based on similar policies in Philadelphia, Detroit, Clevel…

The marquee outside the Bloor Cinema, in Toronto, advertised “The Last Mistress” at four, “Naomi Klein—the Shock Doctrine” at seven, and “Little Shop of Horrors” at nine-thirty. It was a warmish night. The falafel shop next door was doing a brisk business. A line of people holding tickets to the Naomi Klein event stretched to the end of the block and around the corner. Outside the entrance to the cinema, a middle-aged man and an elderly woman paced up and down selling copies of Socialist Action for a dollar. (The September issue included articles about capitalism’s contradictions, class war in Bolivia, and a commen…

The closures come despite widespread opposition to the plan and five days of rallies, sit-ins and other efforts…
