WHAT IS A GENERAL STRIKE?
A GENERAL STRIKE IS WHEN WORKING PEOPLE REFUSE THEIR LABOR UNTIL DEMANDS ARE MET • RESEARCH SHOWS WE NEED 3.5% OF THE POPULATION, OR 11 MILLION AMERICANS, TO BE SUCCESSFUL • THE STRIKE CARD BELOW TRACKS OUR PROGRESS SO WE ALL KNOW WHEN IT’S TIME TO STRIKE •
WHY ARE WE STRIKING?
WE’VE VOTED, WE’VE PROTESTED, AND STILL, THEY IGNORE US. OUR GOVERNMENT REFUSES TO MEET OUR BASIC NEEDS WHILE THE BILLIONAIRE CLASS HOARDS WEALTH AND POWER. WE CAN’T AFFORD TO WAIT ANY LONGER. OUR LABOR IS OUR GREATEST STRENGTH AND IF WE STRIKE TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE REAL CHANGE.
Tell me, what else is working?
