Rally to End the Shutdown

Boston MA: This Friday union members from a wide cross section of Federal agencies will be speaking out against the pointless Federal government shutdown. Hundreds of thousands of working people - many in Massachusetts - are being denied pay as the shutdown enters its fourth week and millions are without vital government services that keep our state and country running.

What: The Greater Boston Labor Council (GBLC) and the Massachusetts AFL-CIO rally in conjunction with the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) and the National Association of Government Employees (SEIU NAGE) against the Federal government shutdown

When: Friday, January 11th at 12PM

Where: Boston’s Post Office Square

Rich Rogers, Executive Secretary-Treasurer of the Greater Boston Labor Council declares: "It’s a core principal of the Labor Movement: A day’s work for a day’s pay."

Steven A. Tolman, President of the Massachusetts AFL-CIO says, "We won’t be held hostage to Trump’s clueless crusade to build a wall. We call on the Administration and the new Congress to work together to support the house legislation and reopen the government.”
