Hi John,
Today I went to picket in support of Teamsters Local 174, concrete workers who are on Day 61 of their strike over low wages and unfair labor practices. They’re calling it a general strike as it spreads to other industries and brings construction sites across the county to a standstill.
This was my second time on the picket line with them, yet my opponent Derek Kilmer is nowhere to be seen. Few local politicians are openly supporting them and the media is barely covering the strike.
I know what it’s like to worry about your bank balance, to get priced out of your own neighborhood, and to get gouged by medical bills — so many people like you and me do.
As one striking worker told me today, it’s time for workers to band together and realize that it’s the corporations and the 1% who are dividing us. It’s us versus them, and the corporations have gotten way too much power over the past several decades.
It’s time to take our power back, and that starts with strikes, direct action, and worker representation in Congress. We don’t need more of the 1% representing us in Congress.
