Please join us for a Rally and Press Conference for the Long-Term Unemployed at Federal Hall on Thursday, August 12th, from 12-1pm. This rally is being organized by the Unemployed Workers Action Group, an ad-hoc committee of the long-term unemployed, united in the cause of justice for all unemployed workers.
Federal Hall was the first seat of the United States Government. George Washington took the oath of office here and Federal Hall was home to the first Congress, Supreme Court, and Executive Branch offices. The long-term unemployed and their supporters will gather here to demand our elected representatives hear us and help us.
We will be just a few blocks from the banks bailed out with our tax dollars. Our elected representatives must value the American worker as much as the big bankers. Please join us as we fight for justice for ALL unemployed.
