All but the dimmest of bulbs is getting the idea we can get our country back. In my opinion this is


WASHINGTON - Spring officially arrived on March 21, but even before warped tour tickets vinoy park that, unionists and their allies were on the road in two big bus tours, with their ultimate destination Washington, D.C., for mass marches there.
The campaigns, for legalizing undocumented people - thus bringing them under labor law protection, among other things warped tour tickets vinoy park - and for raising the minimum wage, show labor's determination to get out in the streets, make unionists' voices warped tour tickets vinoy park heard and raise consciousness of key national issues.
The Fast4Families tour started first, in California . It developed out of the fast that leaders of the immigrant rights movement, including former SEIU Secretary-Treasurer Eliseo Medina, led on Capitol Hill for months. warped tour tickets vinoy park The buses have moved through California, Texas, Minnesota and elsewhere, heading eastwards and targeting districts of House Republicans.
Its object is both to get the GOP-run House to approve comprehensive immigration reform and to stop the 1,100 daily deportations of people who would eventually be eligible for "green cards" and citizenship, should reform pass. The deportations split families nationwide.
"While the House delays, families endure the devastating impacts of inaction. We won't let them forget or ignore the voices and prayers of families within their own district who are calling on them to take leadership and move immigration reform forward. It's time for a permanent solution to this moral crisis," Medina added.
With SEIU 's encouragement, and participation by other groups, some 4,000 women began their own 24-hour fasts as the fast4families tour bus rolled through congressional districts in heavily Republican Texas. That tour will culminate in a national day of action in D.C. on April 5, and a 48-hour fast by women on April 7-9.
Backers include the AFL-CIO, the Service Employees, AFSCME and the Auto Workers . During its 18 stops, AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and Obama administration Labor Secretary Thomas Perez will join, organizers say. That tour demands lawmakers raise the federal minimum wage to $10.10 an hour by 2016. It's now $7.25. Again, GOP lawmakers, and their refusal to approve the hike, will be the targets.
"Several stops will take place outside the offices of Republicans more interested in helping big corporations avoid paying taxes than helping hard working warped tour tickets vinoy park Americans climb out of poverty and one rung closer to the middle class," said Americans United For Change, the umbrella group organizing the tour. "At each stop, Republicans will be confronted with stories from low-wage workers pressing the need to raise the minimum wage."

Wish every success to the movement for raise in minimum wages etc. In India also workers are demanding a raise in minimum wages.( 10,000 rs aproxmately equivalent to 180 $ per month ) fixing a national minimum wage indexed to consumer price index.
All but the dimmest of bulbs is getting the idea we can get our country back. In my opinion this is the time we must do all in our power to save the New Deal, education is the key to this prize,make the message simple to understand and even the the benighted warped tour tickets vinoy park of the Tea Party will see the justice of the cause.85
