OP Labor Outreach Committee Meeting

[improve]

Purpose

Proposed Agenda

1) East County Education...Community Support Campaign Idea (20 min)

Teachers in four school districts are in contract negotiations, and mediation time is running out. The school boards are squeezing them, and a strong community campaign could turn the tide in their favor.

2) May Day organizing Discussion (20 min)

How will we organize for May Day and continue to do Occupy work? Brainstorm.

3) Updates/Reportbacks/Ideas (20 min)

Longview/EGT, Laborers/SEIU, Occupy Labor Forum, Community Assembly, Spokes, etc.

4) Salem Educators' Rally

Monday, February 20th. Participate in delivering giant-sized (symbolic) checks from ALEC to some of Oregon's ALEC-sponsored legislators. There may be other actions as well.

5) Portland Rising Day of Action

Tuesday, February 7th - Start 11:30 am. RSVP ASAP at Portland Jobs with Justice. The first stop of the tour is at the First Student bus company, as you know OSEA[1] organizes the school bus drivers in east county, they are also fighting against cuts. The whole bus tour is going to be very powerful worker solidarity first hand.
