http://www.onewisconsinnow.org/page/community/blog_rss/casetheplace Statement by AFL-CIO President John Sweeney on Voter Suppression Attempts October 23, 2008 It is deeply ironic that Republican operatives are working so hard to tarnish the most dynamic voter participation in our country in decades-apparently to justify and camouflage their most organized attempt yet to deny Americans the right to vote. The right wing in our country is responding to the massive registration of new voters with a despicable, massive assault on voter participation. The AFL-CIO strongly condemns the coordinated national effort by the Republican Party and allied political operatives to suppress voter turnout and deny ballots to newly registered voters, particularly young people, the poor and people of color. http://www.onewisconsinnow.org/page/community/post/casetheplace/CHVc http://www.onewisconsinnow.org/page/community/post/casetheplace/CHVc/commentary#comments Thu, 23 Oct 2008 11:59:09 EDT http://www.onewisconsinnow.org/page/community/post/casetheplace/CHVc casetheplace casetheplace 0 http://www.onewisconsinnow.org/page/community/comment_rss/CHVc/ In this loving video tribute to the Laverne and Shirley opening credits , IAM and UAW work to get the word out about McCain's abysmal record for working families by worksite leafleting members of IAM Local Lodge 66 and UAW Local 9 at the Miller Brewery in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
