32 men and women were arrested for standing up for what we believe in! Now we have to stand up for them! The facts: Remember the August 14 demonstration, near Disneyland, by UNITE HERE? Many OCEA members were out there demonstrating with them, against low wages and decreases in benefits! Thirty-three people were arrested! They are now being fined $711 each! The fines total more than $22,000!
We are holding a FUNDRAISER AT OCEA November 19, 2008 6:00 p.m. TO HELP PAY FOR THEIR FINES! Donation level: Whatever you can, small amounts welcome!(Please make checks payable to OCEA.) Be a part of showing gratitude to these 32 standouts!
