DESCRIPTION:6/24/21 Victory To UAW Striking Volvo Workers in Virginia-\nProtest At 
 BlackRock Hedgefund In San Franciscoo\nThursday June 24, 2021  12:00 
 Noon\nBlackRock Union Busters\n400 Howard St. San Francisco\n\nOn the 
 frontlines of workers fighting for justice are the 3,000 UAW Volvo truck 
 workers in  the New River Valley (NRV) plant in Dublin, Virginia. They 
 voted twice against a concession contract and their leadership was forced 
 to go on strike by the workers for the second time when the membership 
 rejected another concession contract by 90%.\n\nThese striking workers are 
 fighting for justice and worker rights and need our support.\n\nOne of the 
 owners of Volvo Trucks is BlackRock with 96,766,082 shares worth $111 
 million. It is the world's largest asset manager, with $8.67 trillion in 
 assets under management and it is supporting the attacks  not only UAW 
 Volvo workers but workers throughout the world.\nThey also bought up tens 
 of thousands of homes from workers during the pandemic and they and other 
 billionaires are directly responsible for the massive housing crisis and 
 evictions  now taking place throughout the US along side their support of 
 attacks on Volvo Truck workers. \n\nThey also are destroyiing forests and 
 creating an environmetal nightmare for people in the US and around the 
 world. Their agenda is killing workers, working  class housing and the 
 environment for greater profits.\n\nCEO Larry Fink and the crooks who run 
 BlackRock are also major funders of the Democrats and Republicans. Biden 
 even appointed BlackRock’s Michael Pyle to his administration. Pyle 
 worked as the chief investment strategist for BlackRock and also served in 
 President Barack Obama's administration as  special assistant to \nthe 
 president for economic policy at the National Economic Council. \n\nThe 
 striking UAW workers have voted against concessions twice and they are fed 
 up with continual give-backs and concession bargaining pushed by the 
 corrupt UAW International. Business unionism and labor management 
 collaboration has driven down working conditions and the living standards 
 of millions of US workers and a victory foro these UAW Volvo Truck workers 
 would be a victory to all workers. \n\nAlso UMWA miners in Alabama are also 
 out on strike and have faced the same attacks.\nIt is time for all workers 
 to stand up and fight together for victory.\nWe also need a democratic 
 labor party that will stand up for working people instead of the Democrats 
 and Republicans that are run by the billionaires who own BlackRock.\nOur 
 unions gave hundreds of millions of dollars to the Democrats and what do we 
 have to show for it?\n\nTime To Unite For Victory\nAn Injury To One Is An 
 Injury To All\n\nInitiated by\nUnited Front Committee For A Labor 
 Party\ncommitteeforlaborparty(at)gmail.com\nhttps://www.facebook.com/masslaborpartyusa/\nhttps://foramasslaborparty.wordpress.com\n
