Wednesday, July 28th, 2010: (Suggested) Protest and Rally Against Institutionalized Child Abuse in Utah (Salt Lake City, UT): Aspen Education Group and a number of other questionable folks are holding a conference in Utah to promote fraudulent and abusive programs. If you are in or near Utah or planning to be, consider organizing a protest. This event will begin at 11am at Westminster College (1840 South 1300 East | Salt Lake City, Utah 84105 | 801.484.7651). Jeanette Herbert (wife of Gov. Herbert (UT)), UT Atty General Mark Shurtleff, and former Bush "drug czar" are all scheduled to attend and speak in favor of abusive programs. There have been deaths at Aspen Education Group programs (YouthCare, SageWalk, etc.) in Utah and throughout the U.S. Yet, the Utah government wishes to be represented as backing these people instead of protecting the interests of American families. It is time to take a stand. For help in organizing a protest, see www.heal-online.org/handbook.htm.
Tuesday, August 10th, 2010: Good Jobs & Responsible Development Rally (Tacoma, WA): This event will be at 1pm at Tacoma Downtown Marriott (Tollefson Plaza, South of 17th St. between Pacific and Commerce). Hundreds of labor activists will join with community leaders and local residents to call on Hollander-Marriott and all low-paying welfare-taking companies to fuel an economic recovery with good jobs. Hollander-Marriott purchased their downtown site at a “deep discount” from taxpayers, snatched waterfront-mountain views from the taxpayer’s Convention Center, and “brutalized” the architecture of Tacoma taxpayer-financed luxury renaissance, according to the press. The City Council agreed to this in the name of jobs as Hollander-Marriott made promises to the Mayor, Council, and residents and their unions. But Hollander-Marriott "went back on their word" to living wages, local hiring, and a labor harmony agreement, according to former Mayor Baarsma. Hollander built the downtown Marriott using Canadian workers earning poverty-wages. The hotel continues to operate without providing affordable family healthcare and living wages to Tacoma workers. The hotel industry is staffed by many immigrant workers often intimidated from exercising rights to organize for better conditions. Meanwhile, residents face poverty-level unemployment and climbing crime rates in the neighboring Tacoma communities that expected job opportunities at the Downtown Marriott. Recently, the City Council also gave more tax-payer subsidies to Hollander-Marriott for yet another downtown project without holding it accountable for unfulfilled promises or a good jobs standard at this new Thea Foss site. Stand up for our neighbors and our local economy!
