DESCRIPTION:The protest is in solidarity with the national political strike called by 
 the SME union in Mexico.  Electrical workers of the government-owned 
 utility Luz y Fuego del Centro were fired last November by the 
 administration of President Felipe Calderón and replaced by nonunion 
 contract workers.  As part of the effort to regain their jobs and garner 
 the support of other unions and workers, SME and their supporters plan to 
 block access to all of the utility’s facilities.  \n\nIn the United 
 States, support for the SME workers is increasing.  Laid-off SME members 
 have toured several U.S. cities to inform labor and social justice 
 activists of the Mexican government’s attacks on their union and 
 livelihood.  Tuesday’s solidarity rally continues that cross-border 
 support.  \n\nThe demonstration has been endorsed by the Freedom Socialist 
 Party, the Bay Area Latin America Solidarity Coalition, Radical 
 Women/Mujeres Radicales, and other groups and individuals.  For more 
 information, contact Toni Mendicino, 415-730-2917 or Robert Price, 
 415-412-4183.\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2010/03/15/18641225.php
