Dear

International Workers' Day.
noon - San Francisco City Hall Steps, 1 Dr. Goodlett Place (map)
1 p.m. - Budget and Finance Committee Hearing, City Hall
3 p.m. - Workers March
Also, a May 1 Budget Finance Committee hearing has been called by John Avalos to consider San Francisco Department of Recreation and Parks' privatizing its workforce and undermining the gardening apprenticeship program started by Laborers Local 261. Come to the hearing to support the gardening apprenticeship program and put a halt to bad labor practices at San Francisco Rec and Park.
The community based apprenticeship program stengthens our workforce and promotes passionate, skilled gardeners who improve parks and other open spaces in our city. Come show your support for this partnership between our labor unions and environmental activists. The rally will start at noon. John Avalos, other Supervisors, and Michelle Myers from the Sierra Club will be speaking.
Support workers and the environment on May 1! Join the rally at noon and come to the hearing at 1 p.m.!
Thank you for all you do for workers and the environment,
Will Lowry,
Online Communications, San Francisco Bay Chapter
