Support Thursday's March by Local Day Laborers!
To oppose continued police harassment, including extensive ticketing and threats, Mission district Day Laborers will march to the Mission Police Station on May 23rd. As the city fails to address the workers' needs- in particular, the provision of public toilets, police have escalated a campaign to deny the laborers of their basic right to work. Officers continue to target the men as they enter employers vehicles, ticketing them for stepping off of the curb. The public is invited to join in a demonstration against the authorities efforts to further marginalize this valuable workforce.
When: Meet at 11:30am, Thursday, May 23
Where: 26th & South Van Ness Sts, Mission District, SF
(marching to Mission Police Station)
For further information about this action or the SF Day Labor Program (including hiring available workers), call (415)252-5375.
