Labor Hits DC Streets On Labor Day Weekend

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)

Add to this weekend’s Labor Day parades and picnics another Labor Walk. Area union members and labor allies will distribute literature in Ward 4 in a Metro Washington Council-coordinated labor walk Saturday morning to help get out the vote for labor-endorsed candidates -- Phil Mendelson (At-Large) and Vince Gray (Mayor) -- in the September 14 primary. The walk begins at 10A Saturday at IAFF Local 36; 2120 Bladensburg Road NE and wraps up at 1P. Contact Alya Solomon at asolomon@dclaborarchives.org or 202-974-8222 to register to volunteer and for more information. - photo: at the Ward 5 Labor-To-Labor GOTV walk in August; photo by Chris Garlock
