At 4pm, join us for another rally:
Justice for Janitors: Union Busting is Disgusting!
Where: 31 St. James St (Arlington St. T station)
Why: this union of janitors is being unilaterally fired from their jobs, to be replaced by an irresponsible private contractor that pays low wages and little to no benefits. Last time we came out 50 people strong, and protested alongside SEIU 615 (and giant puppets!) — join us for what’s next!!
