Three more weeks to grind until the general Election! Two weeks until we get to do a little early celebration at the Victory Dinner. One Union of working men and women ready to Organize the South!   

In solidarity, Ashley Hawkins

UPCOMING ACTIONS/GET INVOLVED

?ACTION THURSDAY! UNITE HERE Local 23 is participating in a National Day of Action.   UNITE HERE represents workers at the Charlotte Airport, many of whom work for LSG Skychefs, a contractor who gets food onto airplanes for inflight service. Even though there have been many issues to heat safety, the company refuses to air condition their trucks and continues to force workers to do grueling work in unsafe conditions. Stand in Solidarity, Thursday October 19th 12pm-3:00pm, 4710 Yorkmont Rd, Charlotte, NC 28208.   Info here.

5th Annual Victory Dinner will be held Saturday October 28th at the Dilworth Neighborhood Grill.  Individual and Group Tickets available.  Contact CLC President, Tim Rorie spclc.newsletter@gmail.com
