SUPPORT DEC 12 MARCH FOR JOBS IN LOS ANGELES!
100s of billions are being spent on imperialist wars and occupations in
Afghanistan and Iraq, but as Martin Luther King pointed out, the bombs also
fall on poor communities in the U.S in the form of deepening poverty. This is
true across the country, but especially true in California - slammed by the
twin crises of skyrocketing unemployment and a resulting state budget crisis
that is prompting deep cuts in badly needed services. Students at UC campuses
are fighting to reverse a whopping 32% increase in tuition, home foreclosures
are still on the rise, and communities of homeless people are cropping up in
rural areas and in cities across the state. The media keeps calling it
recovery, but the jobs are just not coming back.
The Bail Out the People Movement in Los Angeles is planning a wake-up call to
the powers that be on December 12th at Pershing Square Park to say that we will
not tolerate continued funding of wars and bailouts of billionaire bankers. The
bankers are the ones responsible for this crisis!
Congress and the White House can be weakened and bullied by powerful
corporations, but a united movement of unionists, immigrants, students, - all
working class people - can win the massive jobs program that is needed. We need
your help!
Join us in building a movement that demands Jobs or Income Now! - Not War! Join
the March for Jobs on December 12th in Los Angeles. Meet downtown at Pershing
Square Park at 12 noon, and march to Bank of America Plaza, at 333 Hope
Street.
Call (323) 306-6240 or email bailoutpeople.la@gmail.com for more information or to volunteer to help
