EVENING WITH LABOR AWARD WINNERS: UFCW 1994/MCGEO, Golden Picket Sign

Tuesday, March 12, 2013

EVENING WITH LABOR AWARD WINNERS: UFCW 1994/MCGEO, Golden Picket Sign(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)Local 1994’s gold t-shirts have been a welcome and frequent sight on picket lines throughout the region for years and in recent times the local has become even more creative, including bringing live goats to one rally and parading a gold-plated toilet at others. Their ability on short notice to mobilize members for actions at Maryland congressional offices during the 2012 fiscal cliff campaign — as well as other campaigns in Montgomery County — continue to make Local 1994 a Streetheat leader.

5 Days to EWL 2013: Join the metro-area labor community as we honor all our award-winners at this Saturday's 36th Annual Evening with Labor; tickets $150 each, table of 10 $1,500: email kmckirchy@dclaborarchives.org or call 202-974-8221.
