May 1 "Injury to One Is an Injury to All" IBU Alcatraz Ferry Workers Protest Union Busting

On May 1 at Alcatraz Cruises "An Injury to One Is an Injury to All" IBU-ILWU Alcatraz Ferry Workers Protest Union Busting

On May 1, 2023, San Francisco IBU-ILWU Alcatraz Ferry boat workers, labor and community supporters marched and rallied against union busting at Alcatraz Cruises which is owned by the Hornblower company.

It has a long record of illegally retaliating against pro-union workers and active union busting. In January 2007, another rally and march was held to support an organizing drive at that time by IBU-ILWU and it ended in a victory for Hornblower because of the reliance on Congress women Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats who were in control of Congress to pressure the company to accept the union. Hornblower was given the contract by the GSA despite complaints at that time about that illegal attacks on workers and the union organizing drive.

Workers on May 1 talked about the tactics of the company which has still has a contract with the Federal government to provide transportation to Federal controlled Alcatraz. Workers reported that this company is flagrantly violated labor and human rights in it's efforts to weaken and destroy the IBU-ILWU.

They also are fighting to prevent the pilots from joining the unions claiming that they are supervisors.
