Labor & Community March
in Solidarity with Occupy Portland!
Portland, Oregon - October 26, 2011 -
LABOR COMMUNITY MARCH in Solidarity with Occupy Portland! 

On Wednesday, Oct. 26 at 5 p.m. beginning at Director Park
                                                                                                              (SW Park & Yamhill)
       sponsors: Oregon AFL-CIO, Jobs with Justice, AFSCME, Laborers 483 and more...

On October 3rd, Occupy Portland was endorsed by Jobs with Justice.  Occupy Portland began when thousands took to the streets on October 6 in downtown Portland to protest economic inequality, the scapegoating of working people, the vilification of labor unions, and the exploitation
of the unemployed, underemployed, and homeless.  Everyday people decided to stand up to transnational economic cartels that have take over our communities.

The end of the march was only a beginning.  The protesters occupy a public park to speak for the 99% and demand the 1% profiteers listen. Put your feet on the streets with Labor, educators, organizers, activists, and Occupy Portland again on October 26th.  Remind everyone the 99% are not just the representatives standing our ground in Oregon and across the nation!  

Join the Oregon AFL-CIO, AFSCME, and more unions for sure to come. The WE ARE OREGON drum core will also be there to put a beat to our steps! Labor Radio will be on the streets...

LABOR won't stand for corporatization of our communities - not on Wall Street and not in Portland,
Oregon! We deserve peace, justice, jobs, & freedom. JOBS not CUTS!
