Special Labor Walks on October 2nd, 2010

On Saturday, October 2, 2010, tens of thousands of people from across America will gather at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. to support a progressive agenda and promote positive change in this country. The “One Nation Rally” will feature human and civil rights leaders, labor leaders, environmental and peace activists, faith leaders, celebrities and sports figures – all saying that we should put America back to work and reorder our national priorities so that investments in people come first.

Simultaneously, thousands of labor activists in targeted states across the country will be knocking on the doors of union members in a massive daylong get-out-the-vote mobilization effort to recruit volunteers for the final 4 weeks of political action leading up to Election Day.
Below is an updated list of locations for the AFL-CIO October 2nd labor walks in Wisconsin that are taking place in conjunction with the One Nation rally. Walks are being planned in other areas and I will forward that information to you as soon as it is received.
