May Day 2010 - March and Rally: Jobs for All! Immigrants Rights are Worker's Rights

A place for news and updates for Portland's Mayday 2010!

We hope to build on the success of past marches and bring tens of thousands of Portlanders into the street on May 1st to support worker and immigrant rights and to raise our collective voices to demand an economy that works for everyone!

MAY DAY STATEMENT

International Workers' Day began in the 1880s in the United States with the fight for an eight-hour work day. Today we commemorate the struggle of working people and the poor around the world for economic justice. We stand together against racism, police violence, and attacks on immigrants through ICE raids and detentions. No one is illegal. We aim to stop discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. Through solidarity we will reform our immigration, criminal justice, and economic systems to meet human needs. We demand an increase in public spending, not more cuts to education, public transportation, and social services. We demand decent affordable housing, not foreclosures and evictions. We demand single payer health care for all. We demand living wage jobs, full employment, and the restoration of our right to organize workplaces. We can achieve these goals by taxing the rich and corporations instead of bailing them out. We can stop free trade agreements that have outsourced jobs and kept wages low here while creating sweatshops and destroying resources elsewhere. We can end the wars and occupations as well as environmental catastrophes that serve to keep the corporations rich and the people in poverty. Solidarity Forever. Si se puede.
