Your Help Needed to Elect WCCCD Board of Trustees Candidates!

Dear AFT Local 2000 Members,

There are under three weeks left until the November 8th election.

Our local has endorsed three new candidates for WCCCD Board of Trustees,

Scott Holiday in District 4, Marla Edwards-Wheeler in District 6 and Patrick Kelley in District 7. They are all working hard to win their elections. And, they all face active competition. We need to make sure these pro-educator candidates win.

If EACH of us does ONE of the three things below, we will make it happen!

Solidarity Protest for $15 Minimum Wage

by Bruce Ewen - July 23, 2015

I attended another solidarity protest this morning at the McDonald's in Redford Township on Telegraph Road. About 100 people started the protest, demanding $15 and full time for all workers, by entering the store and filling it up for about 20 minutes until the Police arrived and asked us to vacate.

We went outside and picketed on the sidewalk, listening to the solidarity of motorists' horns and our own voices, bullhorns and drums.
