September 1st, we are joining with May Day Strong to stand in support of laborers across the U.S.

The U.S. recently produced weak jobs growth, amongst increased lay-offs. Our country is suffering and we increasingly can’t afford the cost of living. We’re underpaid and overworked.

By continuing to provide weapons to Israel β€” and bolstering the profits of America's military contractors β€” the U.S. is complicit in the genocide unfolding in Gaza.
