We've GOT to boycott the Monterey Bay Travelodge... especially when owner Kilsoo Seo says in the paper "these union members have everything!" and asks "what's the big deal?" (after he's taken away the Travelodge workers health insurance & pension & frozen hourly wages at only $8.84).  Help UNITE HERE Local 483 show Mr. Seo that his actions threatening the livelihood of 13 of our neighbors and their families (including 19 children now without health insurance) are a BIG DEAL to us.
STATEMENT OF SOLIDARITY: The Monterey Bay Central Labor Council reaffirms our mission to protect, maintain, and advance the interests of all working people, to improve the lives of working families, to bring economic justice to the workplace, a worker’s voice to electoral politics and social justice to the community. We will find a way to continue to work together as a Council of Labor representing all those Labor Unions in the Central Coast that commit to our Council. We are committed to continue to be governed by a diverse and democratic assembly of labor movement activists who meet monthly and together represent over 30,000 working families.
(Unanimously adopted at general membership meeting Wednesday August 3, 2005.)

Solidarity Charter materials: on August 26, the Executive Council of the AFL-CIO approved a Solidarity Charter program aiming to preserve the unity of the labor movement at the state and local level.  Click here for copies of the application process, application form, and AFL-CIO Executive Council Statement on Establishing AFL-CIO Solidarity Charters.  This version of the Solidarity Charter program differs in some ways from the version rejected by Change to Win Chair Anna Burger in her August 11 statement on the Solidarity Charter program. Hopefully this dialogue will continue toward a structure that can preserve our precious local solidarity.
