AFL-CIO marches on Wall Street‏

The AFL-CIO is organising a march on Wall Street https://afl.salsalabs.com/o/4001/p/salsa/event/common/public/?event_KEY=285
AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka and thousands of union and community activists from across the country will be marching down Broadway in the heart of the financial district on 29 April to MAKE WALL STREET PAY. Wall Street tanked America's economy, killed jobs, took $700 billion in taxpayer bailouts-then went right back to business as usual, choking off credit, handing out $145 billion in 2009 executive pay and bonuses and fighting meaningful financial reform.
