July 22 action against Hyatt
This announcement is for Indianapolis, but similar actions are planned in 14 other cities on the same date:

The rich take unfair advantage of everything... even a recession. We've endured staff cuts, reduced hours, and excessive injury rates. Hyatt wants to take more away and lock us into recession contracts even as the economy rebounds.

HOTEL WORKERS ARE MAKING A FAIR DEMAND

Now thousands of hotel workers are doung what every American and Canadian should be doing... standing up to people like the wealthy Pritzker family who run Hyatt. They are taking unfair advantage.

STANDING TOGETHER ON JULY 22

Vancouver - Honolulu - Chicago - San Francisco - San Diego - Toronto - Miami - Long Beach - Indianapolis - San Antonio - Pittsburgh - Los Angeles - Santa Clara - Monterey

Greetings all!

On July 22 hotel workers and supporters will be staging actions in 14 cities across the country, including Indianapolis. At this point in Indy there are around 50 people who will be standing in support of the fair demands the hotel workers are making, and plan to be arrested in a mass act of civil disobedience. These include at least one elected official, leading members of the clergy, labor leaders, hotel workers, supporters, and, well, me. We're asking any and all to come out to support the hotel workers and witness this action.

Cheers!


Here in Indianapolis, we are going to block a major downtown thoroughfare across the Hyatt during rush hour! Cops know this already.
