Dec. 17 is Solidarity Day!

Strike Solidarity Information: For over 7 months the workers of UAW Local 180, at the Case New Holland Plant near Racine, have been on strike. As the cold winter and the holidays draw near, Wisconsin Pro-labor Building Unity partners will bring solidarity and support to these brave workers.

We are organizing solidarity caravans from a number of Wisconsin cities.

To find a caravan near you, go here, and please help spread the word. 

More info about the caravans below.

 If you can, please bring gifts for children, non-perishable foods, hand or foot warmers, and financial contributions. 

At 2:00 pm, we’ll meet at the UAW Local 180 Hall at 3323 Kearney Ave. just outside of Racine, for a solidarity rally and picket line support
