Hello ...
This is an invitation to assist 750 people who need your help by using 5 - 10 minutes of your time each week. This is not a scam and no one is asking for any money.
---------------------------------------------------------------- There are 750 workers on Strike at Basic Vegetable in Salinas California. Being brief, these are low wage workers who are being bullied by an unreasonable company who has vowed to permanently replace every last employee who went on strike. Is the whole situation that simple? Of course not, but if you would like to find out more or sign up to help visit - http://www.teamsters890.org/strike.htm.
What do I mean by help? ---------------------------------------------------------------- A mailing list has been set up composed of people like you who want to help the 750 people on strike. This is how it works - Periodically (1 or 2 times a week) an e-mail is sent to all the people on the mailing list requesting them to complete one or two small tasks such as e-mailing your local congressman, visiting a certain web site or putting up a flyer where you
work. That's it! The reason this will help is that there are already people like you who are participating, making the strikers presence felt.
If you can spare 5 or 10 Minutes a week sign up! ---------------------------------------------------------------- To sign up send a blank email to basicstrike-subscribe at listbot.com or visit http://www.teamsters890.org/strike.htm and enter you e-mail address where it says "You can help the workers on strike at Basic Vegetables!".
If you have any questions you can visit a message board for the strike at http://www.teamster.net/890/ . This is the place where the strike is being discussed.
Thank you.
