Señores
Comité de Seguimiento del Congreso EEUU al TLC -USTR-
Washington D.C.
Ref. Asesinado otro miembro de Sinaltrainal en Colombia
Reciban un cordial saludo.
John Fredy Carmona Bermúdez, trabajador de Sodexo y afiliado a Sinaltrainal, fue asesinado el 9 de diciembre pasado con arma de fuego en la ciudad de Medellín. John Fredy prestaba sus servicios en la empresa Noel, cliente de Sodexo y se encontraba desaparecido desde el 7 de diciembre.
Otro trabajador de la misma transnacional francesa Sodexo, Luis Medardo Prens Vallejo, fue asesinado el 14 de agosto de 2011 y encontrado muerto en la vía que conduce del municipio de Turbaco a Turbana, en el departamento de Bolívar. Luis Medardo prestó sus servicios a Cementos Argos, empresa cliente de Sodexo.
Oportunamente denunciamos ante la comunidad internacional las amenazas de muerte sufridas por el dirigente sindical de Sinaltrainal en Sodexo José Hugo Yanini Cadena, ocurrida el 15 de junio del presente año. Hugo fue amenazado a través de una llamada telefónica “Dígale a ese señor que se cuide la lengua si no quiere que se la cortemos”.
Los tres hechos ocurrieron en un contexto de negociación de pliego de peticiones presentado a Sodexo el 4 de mayo de 2010. El conflicto laboral no ha sido solucionado.

No conocemos ningún resultado de las investigaciones adelantadas por las autoridades colombianas. Todos se encuentran en la total impunidad.
Cordialmente,

Edgar Páez M.

Ocupas bloquean operaciones en los 
principales puertos de la costa oeste deEstados Unidos

Nueva York, 12 de diciembre. Manifestantes del movimiento Ocupa Wall Street bloquearon o interrumpieron operaciones en los principales puertos de la costa oeste, de San Diego a Anchorage, para dar aviso de que el 1 por ciento no podrá proceder con sus negocios y comercio sin tomar en cuenta las demandas del 99 por ciento por la justicia económica.

Nueva York, 12 de diciembre. Manifestantes del movimiento Ocupa Wall Street bloquearon o interrumpieron operaciones en los principales puertos de la costa oeste, de San Diego a Anchorage, para dar aviso de que el 1 por ciento no podrá proceder con sus negocios y comercio sin tomar en cuenta las demandas del 99 por ciento por la justicia económica.
Contingentes de Ocupa Wall Street se movilizaron hacia los principales puertos comerciales incluyendo San Diego, Los Ángeles, Oakland, Portland, Seattle, Tacoma, Anchorage y Vancouver al sumarse al llamado para clausurar los puertos, mientras se realizan acciones de solidaridad en diversas ciudades de Estados Unidos desde Nueva York y Houston hasta Ocupa Honolulu en Hawaii. Decenas fueron arrestados a lo largo del día, aunque no se reportaron actos de violencia.
En Oakland, manifestantes festejaron la noticia de que lograron suspender buena parte de las actividades del puerto esta mañana (75 por ciento de los estibadores no acudió a su turno matutino), mientras se logaron cerrar o interrumpir severamente operaciones en Longview (estado de Washington), Portland, Vancouver y algunas terminales en Los Ángeles. En la noche, más de 2 mil manifestantes regresaron al puerto de Oakland y, según los últimos informes, lograron que se suspendiera el turno nocturno de los estibadores.
En algunos de los puertos las operaciones cesaron parcialmente, porque estibadores del sindicato ILWU rehusaron cruzar líneas de protesta o porque declararon que por razones de seguridad y salud ordenaron a sus agremiados no presentarse a sus turnos (una maniobra técnica que permite al sindicato tomar esa decisión sin violar el contrato colectivo). En otros puertos, otros sindicatos –incluyendo el del magisterio en Oakland– se sumaron en apoyo de las acciones.
En San Diego y Houston la policía reprimió a las marchas. En el puerto de Seattle usó “granadas flash bang” de percusión para dispersar a más de 700 manifestantes que habían logrado clausurar una de las terminales y empezaban a obstaculizar otra.
Disculpe las molestias mientras componemos nuestra democracia, se leía en una pancarta.
Aunque miles participaron en las acciones por toda la costa, la concurrencia fue menor a las acciones que lograron cerrar el puerto de Oakland el 2 de noviembre, cuando más de 10 mil marcharon en ese puerto. Hubo algunos conflictos entre el 99 por ciento, ya que algunos choferes y estibadores se quejaron de que al suspenderse algunas operaciones perdían los ingresos de ese día. Por ley, el sindicato no puede oficialmente declarar su apoyo a la huelga sin violar el contrato colectivo. Sin embargo, secciones enteras del sindicato apoyaron la acción al rehusar cruzar las líneas de la protesta y/o declarar condiciones inseguras y expresar así su solidaridad con el movimiento Ocupa.

La acción fue dedicada en parte contra una de las empresas financieras más poderosa del planeta, Goldman Sachs, que tiene enormes intereses en los puertos comerciales y en el comercio internacional. Los manifestantes denunciaron que Goldman Sachs, como la empresa exportadora de granos EGT, han buscado romper los sindicatos de los estibadores (ILWU) y el intento de formar un sindicato de camioneros en algunos de los puertos de la costa oeste. Goldman Sachs es dueña parcial de una de las empresas de operaciones portuarias más importantes de la zona.
A la vez, los manifestantes señalan que Goldman Sachs se ha beneficiado del arca pública (recibió más de 63 mil millones de fondos públicos en el rescate del sector financiero), mientras en 2010 Goldman otorgó a sus ejecutivos un total de 15.4 mil millones en bonos y se critica su enorme influencia sobre el gobierno.
Pero la acción para clausurar la costa oeste también fue promovida como respuesta a las autoridades por su acción coordinada para aplastar a Ocupa Wall Street, al desalojar campamentos en varias ciudades del país durante las últimas semanas.
El día de acciones empezó en la costa este con una marcha de Ocupa Wall Street a la sede de Goldman Sachs en Nueva York. Tomando la imagen del comentarista político de Rolling Stone, Matt Taibbi, de Goldman Sachs como un gran pulpo vampiro envuelto alrededor de la cara de la humanidad, insertando implacablemente su embudo de sangre a cualquier cosa que huela a dinero, cientos de manifestantes se fueron de pesca del pulpo o calamarear, en varias partes del sector financiero.
Poco después de pasar frente a Goldman Sachs, por lo menos 17 fueron detenidos en el lujoso atrio Winter Garden, del complejo World Financial Center, donde habían colocado cinta amarilla con las palabras Ocupado por todo el piso. También desplegaron desde los balcones una enorme manta de Ocupa Wall Street, mientras empleados de grandes empresas financieras pasaban rápidamente entre ellos.

New York City Needs a Real Living Wage 
By Margaret Chin
The Huffington Post
Dec. 7, 2011
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/blackberry/p.html?id=1135209

Last week, the New York City Council debated the "Fair
Wages for New Yorkers Act," which would establish a
minimum hourly wage, or a "living wage," of $10 per
hour plus benefits -- or $11.50 without benefits -- for
workers hired by companies that receive more than $1
million in city subsidies. The bill was recently
amended to apply only to companies that make over $5
million a year in revenue. Citywide, the bill would
affect approximately five to six development projects
annually, according to the Independent Budget Office.

Donald Spivack, who drafted living wage policy for the
City of Los Angeles, testified that the policy has not
deterred investment or development, even in low-income
areas where interest in development is already weak.
This criticism has been most-often leveled by Mayor
Bloomberg, who has patronized the legislation as "a
nice idea but poorly thought out."

Last week, the Fiscal Policy Institute, an independent
research group, released a report entitled, "The State
of Working in New York 2011: Smaller Incomes, Fewer
Opportunities, More Hardships." Over the last four
years, weekly earnings for workers in the lower half of
the wage spectrum -- those who make less than $52,300
in actual earnings annually -- have declined 3.4
percent in New York City. Compare this to a wage
increase of 8.6 percent over the same time period for
those making more than $52,300 (the NYS median wage)
and the disparity is clear.

The chances of making a decent living in New York City
have steadily declined since the start of the
recession. New York City has lost over 121,000 middle-
and high-wage jobs since July 2008. Over the same
period, job growth only occurred in low-wage
industries, or those paying below $45,000 a year, which
added 69,000 jobs. This is mirrored at the state level.

Not even our degrees can save us. Over the last four
years, median hourly wages for those with a Bachelor's
degree have fallen by 4 percent, or 1.7 percent each
year. This is not a new trend. Since 1990, the portion
of low-wage workers in New York City with some college
education has increased by 70 percent, but wages for
low-income workers as a whole have declined by 8
percent, according to the Fiscal Policy Institute.

Margaret S. Chin is a City Council member in New York
City.

1. Congratulations! Nurses Top Gallup Poll on Honesty, Ethics – Again

It’s time to put nurses in the Hall of Fame. For the 12th time in 13 years, nurses have earned top honors in the annual Gallup poll on ethics and honesty. The Gallup organization does a yearly survey asking Americans to rate “the honesty and ethical standards” of various professions.

“Nurses consistently top the list, having done so each year since they were first included in 1999,” Gallup reported Monday, including the 2011 survey. The one exception was in 2001, just after the terror attacks of September 11, when firefighters topped the list. At 84% “very high” or “high” nurses ranked nearly 10 points better than the next highest profession, pharmacists. Bringing up the rear were members of Congress, lobbyists, car salespeople, and telemarketers, all bottoming out at just 7 percent.

“We hold that trust as a sacred bond with our patients and our communities,” said Karen Higgins, RN, co-president of National Nurses United, the nation’s largest union and professional association of registered nurses. “Patients and their families expect nurses to fight for them at the bedside, even when it conflicts with the profit motive of far too many hospital managers, insurance companies, and others in the healthcare industry who put the bottom line above patient interest,” said Higgins.

“For nurses, that obligation also goes beyond the bedside,” said Higgins citing the year long NNU campaign for “sweeping changes to heal our communities and nation, with a program for a Main Street Contract for America premised on jobs with dignity, healthcare for all, a safe environment, and support for public education. And we have said Wall Street banks and other financial firms who created the current pain and suffering in our communities should pay for it with a small tax on financial transactions.”

NNU plans to continue that campaign in the coming year.—Press Release, 12/12/11 More »
2. 6,000 California RNs Set One-Day Strike December 22
Nurses are poised to hold a one-day strike at California’s second largest private hospital, and one of its most profitable corporate hospital chains, December 22. The strike will affect 2,000 RNs at Long Beach Memorial Medical Center and Miller Children’s Hospital in Long Beach, and 4,000 RNs who work at eight Bay Area hospitals that are part of the Sutter Corporation.

Long Beach RNs have been at odds with hospital management for months over assuring there is safe RN-to-patient staffing at all times. The nurses will also protest hospital demands for sweeping increases in healthcare premiums for nurses. The health care takeaway the hospital is pushing would cost RNs nearly $3,000 more out of pocket in premium costs.

"Nurses are tired of having to fight everyday to protect their patients because of speed up and cost cutting measures," said Long Beach RN Margie Keenan. —CNA Press Release, 12/12/11 More »

3. Join Nurses Protesting Cerberus/Steward Health Care - Dec. 20 in New York
Join nurses from National Nurses United and the Massachusetts Nurses Association as they fight for their patients against Cerberus/Steward, a colossal Wall Street hedge fund company that has gobbled up nearly a dozen health care facilities in Massachusetts.  It is no coincidence that Cerberus’ company name has its roots in Greek mythology, where a Cerberus is the three-headed dog guarding the gates of hell. Since Cerberus took over nearly a dozen Massachusetts-based hospitals last year, RNs and health care professionals have been living in health care hell. In fact, Cerberus: Makes daily threats to close hospitals and services Refuses to honor its signed contracts Targets and fires nurses who advocate for patients Fails to provide the most basic supplies to patients in an effort to cut costs Engages in a variety of anti-union attacks against nurses.

4. Register For an Upcoming CE Classes on HIPPA Privacy Rules
HIPAA - The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. What RNs need to know about privacy rules and protected electronic health information. (Jan. 19 - Feb 10, 2012 in California cities)

This course provides a review of pertinent HIPAA definitions, the legislative history and intent of relevant privacy rules and regulations as they relate to the collection, use, and disclosure of protected, individually identifiable electronic health information. It describes the appropriate safeguards that RNs must follow to protect the privacy of patients’ health information and discusses the rationale and strategies for protecting RN professional practice and credibility with the public. In addition, a selected review of publicly reported HIPAA violations and penalties are included to increase awareness and help RNs avoid the risk of discipline by the employer, their professional licensing board, or the imposition of penalties and fines imposed by civil or criminal courts.

Proposed Regulations Could Limit Access to Affordable Health Coverage for Workers’ Children and Family Members
December 2011, by Ken Jacobs, Dave Graham-Squire, Dylan H. Roby, Gerald F. Kominski, Christina M. Kinane, Jack Needleman, Greg Watson, and Daphna Gans

» Press release 
» Policy Brief 

Our latest report analyzes the proposed regulations defining affordable job-based coverage under the Affordable Care Act. We find that the proposed regulations would result in 144,000 fewer Californians having access to subsidized coverage in the health insurance exchange than would be the case under an alternative interpretation of affordability.

Dear SEIU-UHW supporter,
2011 may be winding down, but we're making sure the year ends on a high note.
Last week, I traveled to Washington, DC with 15 of my fellow SEIU-UHW members, where we joined thousands of other SEIU members and activists in "Take Back the Capitol," a week of events focused on making certain the concerns of the 99% are heard by our decision makers. We spoke to our politicians and demanded that they focus on creating new jobs and protecting services like Medicare and Medicaid. You can read more about what we did to "Take Back the Capitol" here, and make sure to take a look at all of the photos from our week in DC here.
For me, the week of actions was an opportunity to be a voice for those who are so often ignored: hard-working Americans who struggle every day just to pay their bills. Read my blog post to learn more about what inspired me to get involved. 
Back in California, SEIU-UHW members at Daughters of Charity launched their contract bargaining with a bang.
December 9th was the first day of bargaining for SEIU-UHW members at Daughters of Charity hospitals. Members presented big, bold ideas that can make California healthier as part of contract bargaining.

As an emergency room technician and bargaining team member, Natalie Garza deeply understands the need to try to fix our broken healthcare system. Every day she see patients who come into the emergency room with conditions that could have been prevented if they had reliable access to quality healthcare. You can read more about her story and our dynamic plan to get California healthy here.
In Unity,

Dec. 13, 2011

The soaring level of executive pay, stock options and bonuses is at the root of the 2008 crash that nearly took down the economy, experts told an
AFL-CIO conference yesterday.
Donald Blankenship, forced to resign as head of Massey Energy after the Upper Big Branch explosion killed 29 West Virginia coal miners in a tragedy some are calling “industrial homicide,” has filed papers to get back in the mining business. Says Mine Workers spokesman Phil Smith: “Don Blankenship belongs in jail, not in a position to put yet more miners’ lives at risk.”

12/15 SEIU United Service Workers West Protest In SF Against I.C.E. Raids
SEIU United Service Workers West:

Community, labor, and faith leaders are planning to send a message to Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) and Wells Fargo 

Thursday Dec. 15th at noon in San Francisco!

We'll be targeting ICE to highlight their part in tearing working families apart, and the corporations that invest in criminalizing our communities such as Wells Fargo. 

We plan on kicking up the heat and showing the world there are more communities who believe in the honor of labor, family, and diversity than those who stand against it.

Join us!

What: Protest I.C.E and Wells Fargo
When: Dec. 15th
Time: Noon
Where: meet at intersection of Davis & Market St.

We would like to get the word out far and wide, so please blast this to all your freedom fighting friends!  Fliers are attached in both English and Spanish.  For more information contact Mekahel at 510-437-8109.

Stop the I.C.E. Attacks on the 99%

Across the country, the Immigration Customs and Enforcement (I.C.E.) Agency is doing the dirty work of the 1%—targeting hardworking 
immigrant families who have struggled to turn poverty jobs into good jobs and spreading fear into our communities.

On December 15, we’re letting I.C.E. know we will not be ruled by the fear they spread on behalf of corporations who profit from a broken immigration system. 

The 1% profits from fear.

We’re letting them know that we are not afraid. Join us.

Forward,

--
