Get on the bus
for the Million Worker March,
Oct. 17, 2004,
Washington, D.C.!
The struggle of working people and the struggle against the war are the same
struggle! Bring the troops home now! End the occupation of Iraq! Organize a
local "AntiWar 4 the Million Worker March" committee now!
This fall in Washington, D.C., we will have a timely and historic
opportunity to unite the anti-war movement with an unprecedented and vitally
necessary mass march of working people speaking for themselves. This is a
rare opportunity that serious anti-war activists can't afford to pass up.
Some of the strongest voices and most active groups in the labor movement,
together with the active support and participation of organizations
representing many progressive movements and causes, will be getting on the
bus to D.C. on Sunday, October 17, for the MILLION WORKER MARCH. A sea of
workers from every industry, from every union and every place where workers
want a union, from every part of the country, will be streaming into the
capital to demand jobs, a living wage and workers' rights.
They will also express their anger over the senseless dying that is going on
every day in Iraq and elsewhere, and their desire that it end now. Why?
Because it is working families who bear the burden, it is their loved ones
who are sent off to fight and die, and it is their, our, the workers' money
that is stolen to pay for war and occupation.
What makes the Million Worker March unique is that the eventīs principal
organizers want to make the anti-war movementīs demand to "End the
Occupation of Iraq, and Bring the Troops Home Now central to the march's
message and the goals.
