VA Labor on the March
Tuesday, July 5, 2011
(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)“We
had a wonderful group representing labor” in
Monday’s Dale City
Independence Day Parade, reports Northern
Virginia Labor Federation
President Dan Duncan. More than 50 union
members and their families
celebrated the Fourth of July by marching in
the parade, including
members of AFT, CWA, IAFF, IBEW, IUOE, OPEIU,
SIU, SMWIA and UFCW.
UAW-made pickups sported “We Are One” signs
and Duncan says that “We
were very well received, especially when we
tossed out union-made
candy.” NoVA Labor has marched in the parade
for more than 20 years.
