MONTCO Janitors Demonstrate Support For Houston Strikers

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)

Unionized janitors in Montgomery County staged an impromptu solidarity demonstration last Thursday in support of striking janitors in Houston. Janitors passed out flyers on North Washington Street in Rockville “to show that our companies in Houston are not agreeing to pay a fair and just wage,” said SEIU Local 32BJ District 82 union delegate/organizer Lourdes Rivera. More actions are planned; details to follow.
