Subject: <ChicagoMayDay> Workers in Chicago (and their union) occupy a factory! 
Right Now!
 


Breaking: Chicago Workers Occupy Factory! 
Need Your Immediate Support! 
>From PilsonProle blog [ http://www.pilsenprole.blogspot.com/ ]

 
The workers of Republic Windows and Doors 
are right this minute occupying their factory, which was due to close at 10:00 
AM this morning. The workers are fighting for pay for their lost vacation days 
and for the 75 days notice that they are guaranteed under Illinois law. This is 
the first time in many years workers have taken the bold, militant strategy of 
occupying their place of work to demand justice. The plan to occupy the plant 
until they hear the results of the next round of negotiations Monday afternoon. 
THEY NEED TO KNOW THEY HAVE OUR SUPPORT!!!

A prayer vigil has been 
planned for 12:00 Noon tomorrow. Please attend. BUT WE SHOULD ORGANIZE A 
CONSTANT PRESENCE OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS PICKETING OUTSIDE THE FACTORY! BRING 
FOOD 
AND COFFEE FOR THE WORKERS. It is our presence and the press that is the 
workers 
best defense against the police raiding the factory.

These workers are 
fighting for all of us!!! As the economic crisis deepens we need to launch a 
working class fight back. These workers are the starting point and deserve our 
full support.

Go to.
