We started a website†www.DumpIsraelBonds.com†to be the center of a campaign to get unions to sell of their Israel bonds. Please take a look at it. We're gathering a list of union members willing to be "Supporters" of the site. There's no money obligation, just support for the idea that unions should not be owning bonds in a government that is so racist and anti-union.
On a Supporters page page we're going to list union member names with their union identification and an optional paragraph of biography or comment.
Examples
Stanley Heller AFT #1547, Central Labor Council delegate
Or Stanley Heller AFT #1547, Central Labor Council delegate
I've been in AFL-CIO unions for over 40 years (Retail Clerks, Machinists, Teachers) and a Central Labor Council delegate from the early '70's. It's a disgrace that unions would own bonds supporting a government that is racist, anti-union and violent. They should all be sold off immediately.
IF YOU'D LIKE TO BE LISTED AS A SUPPORTER WRITE BACK WITH YOUR NAME AND IDENTIFICATION AND (optional) paragraph: mail@TheStruggle.org
