The short explanation of this alert was:

Statewide Actions to Support Our Veterans & Defense Workers


Rally with JwJ, AFGE,
and the King & Pierce County Labor Councils
on Wednesday, August 31st

  • 4 to 5:30 pm, Rep. Dave Reichert's Mercer Island Office (2737 78th Ave SE)

  • 4:30 to 6 pm, Sen. Maria Cantwell's Tacoma Office (950 Pacific Avenue)

Don't Use the War to Attack Workers! President Bush is trying to strip away a voice for truth, real national security, veterans' rights, and troop safety. Right now, Bush is trying to do this to 750,000 federal workers at Madigan Hospital, Fort Lewis, McChord, and all other Department of Defense facilities nationwide.

Rally with us outside Rep. Reichert's and Sen. Cantwell's offices while delegations of faith, community, and labor leaders are meeting inside with them.

What we can do on Wednesday, August 31 if you can't rally?

  • Contact Sen. Cantwell & Rep. Reichert. Tell them to scrap NSPS:
         *Real national security includes workers' rights
         *Our troops and democracy deserve defense workers with a free voice
         *Our veterans deserve living wage jobs

  • Thank Sen. Murray, and Representatives Inslee, Larsen, Baird, Dicks, McDermott, and Smith, but URGE them to take a stronger and more vocal stand against NSPS. We want all of Washington State's Congressional leaders to be publicly opposed and pushing to stop implementation of this vicious personnel system.

  • Forward this email to people who live in Representative Reichert, Hastings, or McMorris' districts (or anyone else in Washington State for Senator Cantwell) and encourage them to make a phone call or send an email.
