Action Alert! Support Mexican Trade Unionists!

SPECIAL ALERT FROM the UE

In what appears to be a breakthrough, the SME has lifted its hunger strike based on the government's commitment to engage in negotiations. The union sat down for the first time on Monday, July 26. On July 27 there was an assembly which resulted in a plan to send a caravan to Cananea in solidarity with the third anniversary of that strike on Friday, July 30.

SME has requested that we make our concern clear to the Mexican government.

In an unprecedented show of solidarity, the UE, CEP, USW, ICEM and IMF all agreed to co-sponsor a LabourStart campaign to encourage the Mexican government to honor its commitment to negotiate and to resolve the conflicts with SME and with the miners at Cananea.

We Are Now Asking You to Do Three Things:

1) Help us generate a flood of letters by joining the LabourStart campaign.

This will take less than a minute -- simply click here!

2) If you belong to an organization, send a letter on behalf of your organization as soon as possible. The letter prepared by the UE appears below, so that you can use or modify the text.

3) Get this information out and circulating! Pass this alert on to your co-workers, family and friends. If you have access to a web site, please post this information.

What a year! Corporate America has certainly been naughty but they’re still getting lots of presents. Who knew that crashing the economy, laying off millions and forcing people out of their homes could be so lucrative.

Voting has ended. JwJ is proud to announce Hyatt is the winner of the scrooge of the year!

Support Colombian Trade Unionists

Massachusetts Jobs With Justice is working to support trade unionists and human rights activists in Colombia targeted by right wing paramilitary death squads. We have built a special relationship with the municipal workers union SINTRAOFAN in the hard hit province of Atioquia. One of its leaders, Hector Giraldo, has been working with JWJ, the Communication Workers, SEIU, and others in Massachusetts to build support in the U.S. and oppose the U.S. military's "Plan Colombia". In collaboration with SINTRAOFAN, MassJwJ has also expanded its solidarity networks with other Colombian trade unionists and are reacting to the constant stream of death threats hurled at labor organizers by pressuring both US and Colombian officials to protect the rights of our sisters and brothers in Colombia to organize.
