Both Jobs with Justice and the labor movement are changing e-mail providers, so we may not be able to communicate to our large data base of supporters for some time. Stay tuned to www.labordallas.org or listen to my radio show at 7 AM each Monday on KNON 89.3 FM for the latest on the jobs crisis. Environmentalist Molly Rooke will be on with me July 5th to talk about labor/environmentalist cooperation on Green Jobs!
love & solidarity
