WEDNESDAY NIGHT, JULY 25th-Get on the Bus to the Brockton Nurses
Strike!!
Time: 6:00 p.m. bus leaves Boston (from Charles St.), arrives in
Brockton 7:00 p.m. We will stay on the picket until 9 p.m., and
return to Boston by 10:00 p.m.
Massachusetts Jobs With Justice wants workers' rights advocates
to head down to Brockton with us next Wednesday night, July 25th
to support the Brockton Hospital Nurses. The strike will be in
its 62nd day at that point!! Bus leaves from Charles St., by the
underground parking garage (accessible by T-"Boylston" stop on
Green, "Park St." stop on Red, "Downtown Crossing" on Orange).
This is the section of Charles St. between the Boston Common and
the Public Gardens.
Nurses are demanding an end to mandatory overtime and an improvement
in staffing levels. We will be relieving them on the picket so
that they can attend a town meeting to update the community on
their situation. To reserve a seat on the bus, or for more information,
call Mass. Jobs With Justice at 617.524.8778. Right now, we have
reserved a single, 47-seat bus. We would love to call them Friday
and ask to reserve another! Let us know how many of you and your
friends will be joining us. A collection will be taken on the bus
(suggested donation $5-10, NOT REQUIRED) to defray some of the
costs. We contracted Brush Hill Bus Company out of Randolph because
they're UNIONIZED!
