DESCRIPTION:Defend & Speak Out for New Orleans Striking Sanitation Workers\nNew Orleans 
 sanitation workers at the City subcontractor Metro Service Group went on 
 strike in May to protect their health and safety and to win living wages, 
 and they are still fighting.\n\nTheir wages are $10.25 an hour and were 
 fighting for a $15 an hour wage. These workers who have organized the City 
 Waste Union are fighting for health and safety conditions to protect 
 themselves from over contracting Covid-19.\n\nWhen the workers went on 
 strike, the company had the police, and city replace them with prison labor 
 and parolees.\n\nMetro Service Group is owned by True Blue based in Tacoma, 
 Washington, and they also own People Ready/Labor Ready. This is a labor 
 broker that sells non-union labor to companies and they have offices in 
 Oakland and over 600 cities.\n\nIn Tacoma, the ILWU and other labor and 
 community supporters are taking weekly action, and we are joining in 
 solidarity here in Oakland. They need your support. Please join 
 us.\n\nWednesday, October 28, 2020\n5:00 PM\nPeoples Ready/Labor
