Greetings,

 We are just hours away from winning justice for the workers at the

Philadelphia Museum of Art.

After nearly two decades of working for poverty wages, after having their union pulled out from beneath them like a rug in 1992, the security guards at the Philadelphia Museum of Art will finally have a chance to speak with one, resounding voice.  We think that "Union, YES!" will be heard coming from the top of Fairmount.

at yesterday's prayer vigil

Dozens people have volunteered hundreds of hours to knock on the doors of security guards and to gather hundreds of support petitions.  Thousands have prayed with us in churches all across the city.  And courageous security guards from many different companies and locations in Philadelphia have countering AlliedBarton's intimidating, misinformation campaign.  You have sung with us.  You have danced with us.  You have marched with us. 

We are now in the most critical of hours.  We need your help.

An overwhelming majority of the security guards at the museum are tell us that they want to form their own union.  The union that will be formed when the win is the Philadelphia Security Offciers Union.  The security guard leaders and our volunteers will be working late tonight and through Saturday to try to win.  You can help us cover some of our operating expenses like gas, parking, printing and museum passes by donating now!  Click here:  https://secure.ga3.org/08/PhillyDonate

AlliedBarton is already telling guards that even if the do win, they are not going to negotiate with the union.  Help us get ready for the next phase in this struggle by donating now.  Click here:  https://secure.ga3.org/08/PhillyDonate
