Download an application and check out more information soon at: <http://www.cispes.org/english/Delegations/index.html) Come be a witness to history as we join the Salvadoran social movement, progressive unions, and the leftist FMLN party in their inspiring celebration of May Day � International Workers Day. May 1st is more than just a holiday in El Salvador; it signifies national and international consciousness, conviction, and solidarity. Its signifies the rallying cry "The workers, united, will never be defeated!" In March 2004 the right-wing ARENA party stole the Presidential Elections with the help of US government intervention. In December 2004 they unconstitutionally ratified CAFTA, the Central American Free Trade Agreement, surrounding the national assembly with riot police to keep protestors out. The social movement and unions are calling for our solidarity NOW more than ever! On this delegation we will meet with: * The Popular Social Block (BPS), a coalition of organizations on the frontlines of the struggle against CAFTA and privatization. * The Women's Secretariat of the FMLN who is fighting hard for the rights of women in Salvadoran society * An FMLN mayor and see the alternative vision of development in action * And, we will participate in a wide variety of May Day activities organized by our partners in El Salvador including: -- The BIG May Day march -- A press conference where we demand respect for workers rights Download the application at <http://www.cispes.org/english/Delegations/index.html> or call our national office at (212) 465-8115 or the Los Angeles office at 323-852-0721. ===== CISPES Committee In Solidarity With The People of El Salvador 8124 West 3rd Street L.A.
