The response to this call to action by our members, affiliates, and allies has been astonishing. Across sector or industry, whether it's a public or private sector union, from local to national unions and organizations; I've found nothing but hands stretched out in solidarity in support of our brothers and sisters in Montgomery County. Within hours of putting out the call to action, we had over a dozen unions say they would be there on Tuesday night, and over the last week those numbers have only gone up. There is no room in our region for ALEC sponsored legislation, nor for elected officials who would champion their initiatives. I look forward to seeing everyone tonight - don't forget to wear your union shirts and colors!
