Please email info needed for busses leaving the Chicago/Harvey area. I would like to pass on info about where transportation will be provided so that I can gather as many people to participate. Am very excited to be a participant of SEIU Local 1199 and the NAACP march on Washington. I live in Chicago and am very very interested in attending this historical march.

I would love to participate, but I am unable to drive to DC . If there are any plans to organize a charter bus leaving from the Boston Area, please let me know. There are two of us who would love to go. Pray God that it is a successful rally! This event is coming up so quickly and not a lot of people are aware of it.

This April, 149 years ago, my great great grandfather received a call from Mr. Lincoln to come to Washington (it seemed he needed a little help) and he went. I think Mr. Obama needs a little help now. I will be there.

]]> Comment on ALL OUT FOR OCTOBER 2 TO DEMAND JOBS FOR ALL! by National Job for All Coalition http://wercampaign.org/2010/08/07/all-out-for-october-2-to-demand-jobs-for-all/comment-page-1/#comment-1753 National Job for All Coalition Sun, 22 Aug 2010 04:13:01 +0000 http://wercampaign.org/?p=588#comment-1753 The National Jobs for All Coalition congratulates the organizers of this March, endorses this critical action and encourages its members to participate. Massive unemployment demands massive, direct job creation on the part of the federal government. When the private sector fails to provide enough living-wage jobs for all who want to work, Washington must compensate for this lagging demand. Otherwise the Great Recession will become another Great Depression. With the pain of unemployment widespread and the public conscious of its horrors, we can take decisive action, not only to end today's double-digit unemployment. We must also take steps to eliminate the chronic unemployment and underemployment that afflict millions of Americans in better times as well. The solution is not hard to plan--in fact NJFAC has a plan; what we lack is the political will. This march is a step on the way to gaining that will.

Hadn't heard anything as far as organization of the event yet. As the local president of my teachers' union, I want to moblize my membership to be there. We need to get the information out to our members. Neither the state local's website, NYSUT, or the national unions' sites, AFT and NEA have any mention regarding the event. We need to publize the event and have an amazing turnout. Heard President Trumka’s speech at the AFT convention and was excited about the march on Washington.
