Candlelight Vigil
Tuesday 5PM
October 6
Wisconsin State Capitol
2 East Main Street, Madison, Wisconsin
We lost not only a champion of the people today, but a brother, Marty Beil.
To honor him please join me for a candlelight vigil Tuesday Oct. 6th starting at 5:00 on the Capitol Steps (of course coinciding with a hearing to kill civil service, because of course Marty wouldnt have it any other way!)
Be sure to bring a candle and wear your AFSCME Green!
SOLIDARITY!
