SOLIDARITY MARCH FOR 4,000 UAW MEMBERS
FIGHTING FOR THE RIGHT TO BARGAIN FAIR
WORK CONTRACTS WITH ATLANTIC CITY CASINOS
 
In 2007, more than 4,000 casino dealers and slot technicians at four Atlantic City casinos put there jobs on the line to form a union with the United Auto Workers, and were victorious in gaining a Voice At Work. One year later, these workers are still without a contract.
 
On June 21, please join the New Jersey State AFL-CIO,  AFL-CIO President John Sweeney, and our union brothers and sisters from throughout the Northeast region of the U.S., as we march through Atlantic City to remind the casino owners that Atlantic City is, and will always be, a union city! We are asking unions to start organizing buses to send their members to this event which begins at 12 noon with a Solidarity Rally. Please check back soon for updates!
CLICK HERE FOR THE FLYER, AND PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!
