International Brotherhood of Teamsters' stationary.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

 

  The Teamsters Union is fully supporting the Million Worker March Movement
and their upcoming events in the Nation's Capital. We are making a financial
contribution and encouraging members to attend the Millions More Movement
from October 14-16 in Washington , D.C.

 

  The Million Worker March Movement and the Teamsters Union share many
goals, including reforming health care, and the pension system, as well as
fighting for living wages for all Americans.

 

  The current attack on workers have made the stakes for black workers in
particular, and the working class in general, much higher than in years
past. Events like this allow the Teamsters Union to forge new alliances as
we address the crisis facing workers today.

 

 We encourage you to participate in these worthy events.

 

 

                                                  Fraternally,

 

 

                               James P. Hoffa                         C.
Thomas Keegel
