From: http://www.fightbacknews.org/
Workers from around the state of Wisconsin will be driving up to support those on strike.
Andrew May, a semi-truck driver and member of Teamster Local 344 and the United Workers Organization, states, “I’m supporting the strikers to show solidarity. The more strength and support they have, the easier it is to have a fair contract and win a victory for Wisconsin workers. Workers should go to the picket lines and stand with them and spread the word locally in their own workplaces and communities.”

Don’t Let Them Use Syria As A Pretext! U.S., France and All Imperialists Out Of Syria NOW, Stop the Bombing! People Need JOBS Not Endless Wall Street Wars!

Those who want to combat these threats must use their own and social media to expose the crimes of the U.S. and French ruling classes. We must also stand in solidarity with the migrants on all continents; they are our fellow workers and oppressed peoples.
We must stand in solidarity with the movements to win rights and justice as they resist the pressure of the rich and powerful, trumpeted through their bought media, to retreat from struggle.
It is the super-rich who have demanded the wars against Syria, Libya, Afghanistan and Iraq. Don’t let them use the horrors they have created as an excuse to drag us into ever more destructive conflicts.
No to U.S., French, NATO, Saudi or Israeli intervention in Syria, Iraq, Yemen or the rest of West Asia!
Defend the rights of migrants on all continents!
Solidarity of all workers and oppressed against imperialism and reaction!
