Wednesday, May 7, 2014(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)
More than 1,000
activists from unions, greens, citizen
groups,students and other groups will hear from
members of Congress and rally
for fair, 21st century tradetoday at 1:30p at the
U.S. Capitol (Upper
Senate Park; Independence
across from the Capitol). “Our failed trade
policies have left working people
behind for the past 20 years,” says CWA,
which is spearheading the event. “Now,
Congress is toying with the idea of giving the
president ‘fast track’ trade
authority —a green light to push through more
flawed trade deals. We need to
make our voices heard before it’s too
late.” photo courtesy
