 government labor contract (CPE) which erases job security for all workers 
 under the age of 26, French students and workers erupt in a nationwide 
 revolt. More than 75% of French universities are occupied by striking 
 students, along with a comparable number of highschools.  Anti-CPE rioting 
 and clashes with police spread across the country, and 69% of the 
 population continues to support the demonstrations. On Saturday, March 18, 
 1.5 million students, workers, and youth march, threatening to escalate 
 further action.  On Monday, a national strike is called for March 28. Polls 
 reveal that some 71% of French now believe that in the anti-CPE unrest 
 exists “a major social crisis which can become extensive during weeks 
 which come”.  V i d e o . C o n f e r e n c e . and . S o l i d a r i t y
