UNAC Goes To Madison

Dear United National Antiwar Committee Supporters,

As Governor Walker in Wisconsin attacks the very right of unions to exist, workers there have taken a page from the rebellions in Northern Africa and the Middle East and are fighting back. This weekend the labor movement will be mobilizing in support of the Wisconsin workers throughout the country while in Madison the largest protest yet is expected to occur.

At today’s UNAC steering committee meeting, we decided to support the Wisconsin workers and send a team of people to the Wisconsin rally on Saturday. Our team will be headed up by Ashley Smith (cell number: 802-2382765) and Phil Wilayto (cell number: 804-247-3731). If you are in Madison or can get there, please join us. UNAC will have placards and a banner and will pass out thousands of leaflets for April 9th with the UNAC statement on the Wisconsin fight on the back (Click here for the UNAC statement on the Wisconsin fight).

Please join us. If you can help with the UNAC antiwar contingent in the Wisconsin demonstration, please let us know by email at UNACpeace@gmail.com or by calling the number for Ashley or Phil listed above. The location where UNAC and other antiwar people can meet will be listed on the UNAC web site on Friday (www.UNACpeace.org).

In solidarity,

Joe Lombardo and Marilyn Levin

UNAC co-coordinators
