Hi Seattle United Against FBI Repression activists,

Twenty-three antiwar and international solidarity activists are still facing possible jail time for living by their convictions.

Attached is a new flyer we’d like you to download, print and circulate at upcoming activities and events.  Please help ask others to stand in solidarity with the 23.

This next week there are multiple events in Olympia, Seattle and across the nation to oppose attacks on working people and cuts in basic services.

Some of the events are listed below:

**MON APRIL 4, 5:30-7 pm, at MLK Jr. Park in Seattle (2200 Mmartin Luther King Jr. Way)

From Wisconsin to Idaho, Ohio to Florida, across the nation the public sector and public sector unions are under attack. Hard earned civil liberties are being outwardly attacked. Please join union members and others interested in protecting the public sector and civil liberties. Join us as we honor the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King and STAND UP FOR WORKING FAMILIES. This event is spearheaded by CWA [Communication Workers of America] and supported by MLKCLC [Martin Luther King County Labor Council] and other affiliated organizations, info [email protected]
