AFSCME 3800 Supports Occupy Minnesota

AFSCME supports the Occupy Wall Street movement that has swept the nation and we stand in solidarity with those protesting Wall Street’s greed. The reckless pursuit of profits for the bankers and super-rich at the expense of working people must come to an end. It’s time for regular people – the 99 percent – to take back control and put people before profits.  Local 3800 submitted a resolution in support of the protests to the statewide AFSCME Council

Some colleges show no disparity
