United We Stand Rally - Milwaukee - 03/14 @ Noon

Dear Local 82 Brothers and Sisters,

In these trying days and months ahead, we have one consolation, and that has been the unwavering support of the students at our Universities around the state. They have done all that could have been asked of them, all that we could dream of, in this fight for freedom and in support of workers rights. Now comes an opportunity for us to show our strength, resolve, and appreciation for those who have given so much to this fight for our jobs and compensation.

As your president, their is only so much I can do to represent you. We need to have the participation of as many of you as possible at the rally on Monday. Please wear your AFSCME green. Do not stand in the back, come to the front of the rally, and as many as can, please come onto the stage.

All who are stewards, exec-board members, and activist leaders please take the lead and help get our members to the rally. Come and be prepared to take your lead as proud AFSCME members. We hope to have AFSCME members from other Locals as well as our Council leadership who I spoke to today. Rally starts at 12 noon in Spaights Plaza.

United We Stand,

Gilbert Johnson
President, AFSCME Local 82
WSEU Council 24
