 Richard Trumka, American
The American worker has been getting thrashed for
thirty years. Jobs leaving the country, wages flat, his
boss getting rich. One coal miner from Pennsylvania
knows exactly what to do about it.
By John H. Richardson
Esquire
November 21, 2011
http://www.esquire.com/features/americans-2011/richard-trumka-1211#ixzz1eNTljtyI

Richard Trumka stands at the podium like a man with his
foot in the doorway of history, relaxed and confident
and grinning at the audience. Wisconsin? The attempted
murder of public unions? That was actually a win, he
says. A big beefy guy with a bristling mustache and
Blagojevich hair, Trumka started life as a coal miner.
His grandfather was a union man. His father was a union
man. He became a union man and put himself through
college on the midnight shift, leading many bitter
strikes in the coal patch where rock-throwing miners
confronted guards with machine guns, scenes from an
epic American history few people remember. Two years
ago he rose to the top of the American labor movement,
president of the AFL-CIO, where he represents twelve
million firefighters, teachers, nurses, miners,
electricians, and entertainers. He came in with a
lifetime's worth of dreams for reviving labor and
saving America. So when Governor Scott Walker this year
took away the right of collective bargaining for
government workers in Wisconsin, the law of the land
for seventy-five years, Walker didn't just aim a dagger
straight at the heart of American labor, he aimed it at
Rich Trumka's heart.

But Trumka is grinning. "We've been trying for three
decades to get a national debate on collective
bargaining. Scott Walker gave us the national debate we
were looking for."

By national debate he means thousands of angry citizens
marching in the street. Occupying the state capitol.
Mounting recall elections. That's the kind of national
debate Trumka thinks America needs.

"Now 70-some percent of Americans think every worker,
public or private, ought to have the right to
collective bargaining."

So would you support going after Walker?

Trumka doesn't hesitate. "Would I support going after
Lucifer? Of course -- the guy's been a bad governor, he
tried to use a contrived deficit to take people out."

Within hours, this will be denounced as hate speech on
right-wing blogs.

And the Occupy Wall Street protests, some recent union
locals becoming involved -- do you have an opinion on
that?

Hell yes, he has an opinion. Unions have been trying to
tell people that Wall Street is out of control since
about forever. They've warned about lost jobs and
stagnant wages and the insane wealth of the top 1
percent for almost as long. They've been major players
in the push to reregulate Wall Street. They've been
leading the fight against lavish executive pay. From
the beginning of the protests, union bus drivers
refused to take people to jail. The first major
endorsement of the protesters came in the form of seven
hundred union steelworkers.

"I think being in the streets and calling attention to
issues is sometimes the only recourse you have," Trumka
says. "Wall Street is out of control. Calling attention
to it and peacefully protesting is a very legitimate
way of doing it. I've done it thousands of times myself
and I'll do it again."

On the right-wing blogs, Trumka is called "the
spiritual father whose attention is craved by the
anarcho-communists in Zuccotti Park."

A few days later, Trumka takes the protesters water and
bagels.

In the endless war over America, which is always a war
over different versions of American history, a new
battle has begun.

There's the White House just outside Trumka's window,
so close he has to call the Secret Service every time
he wants to go out on his balcony. Trumka pays no
attention. "We have fourteen million Americans out of
work," he says. "We have twenty-five million Americans
that want to work full time and can't find a full-time
job. We have record numbers of people who have been out
of work for longer than six months -- companies now
beginning to say, 'If you've been out for six months,
don't apply. Don't apply. In order to get this job, you
must already have a job.'"

There's a hammering urgency in his voice you don't hear
from most other people in public life these days,
partly because everybody else realizes they don't have
real solutions to offer. Republicans think that all we
can do is cut taxes and cut regulations and wait for
capitalism to heal itself. Democrats want to raise
taxes a little on the rich and try another little
stimulus and wait for capitalism to heal itself.

Trumka thinks they are both wrong -- dangerously,
destructively wrong.

"This is what we need -- to be able to share the wealth
more equitably. That's how the middle class was built,
from '46 to '73, and that's how it should be built
again. 'Cause the country isn't poor, the country's as
rich as it ever was. Our wealth is just concentrated in
the hands of very few. More people need to get a bigger
share of what's being produced."

Free markets? He has no patience for such talk. "It's
an insane system right now. We just came through a
period where all the major premises that they relied on
have been disproven. And yet they still cling to them --
'Get everything out of the way of the market and
everything will be fine.' We know that's not true."

Or the idea that austerity will improve the economy.

"Look at Greece -- the more austerity they push on
Greece, the deeper the recession and the more debt they
have. It's the definition of insanity, doing the same
thing over and over and over again and expecting to get
a different result."

Even the idea that aid to the elderly, the sick, and
the helpless -- the social services that conservatives
have taught us to call "entitlements" -- is a drain on
the economy.

"Lemme give you facts. That tax cut that they gave to
the middle class there, each dollar generated a dollar
four in economic activity. Dollar four cents. You know
what a dollar in food stamps generates? Dollar
seventy-four cents. Which one's the most effective?
Which one?"

The root cause of our crisis, Trumka argues, is the
small government "neoliberal" economics pioneered by
Milton Friedman from the University of Chicago. He asks
for a copy of Naomi Klein's The Shock Doctrine.

Unions and Occupy Demonstrators March Through Oakland
Photos by David Bacon

OAKLAND, CA - 19NOVEMBER11 - Unions join grassroots people and political activists from the Occupy Oakland movement to march through the city.  The march of about 4000 people protested the exploitation of 99% of the population by the wealthiest 1%, as well as police repression and removal of occupy encampments in Oakland, at the University of California campus in Berkeley, and around the country.  Marchers voiced solidarity with the original New York City demonstration, Occupy Wall Street.  The march ended at Lakeview Elementary School, where students and teachers denounce its impending closure and the closure of other schools.

Republicans in Indiana to Seek Law Limiting Unions
Monica Davey, The New York Times News Service: "Republican leaders in Indiana on Monday declared as their top legislative priority making Indiana a "right to work" state, setting the stage for a new battle over union rights that has already consumed many states. The proposal would prevent unions from negotiating contracts that would require workers to pay union dues. The notion instantly set off objections from the state's union leaders, who said the true aim was to weaken labor unions, and from Democratic lawmakers, some of whom had left the state for more than a month early this year in an effort to block similar provisions."

NCLR in Action is a monthly communication from the National Council of La Raza (NCLR), the largest national Hispanic civil rights and advocacy organization in the United States, which provides information on issues of importance to Latinos. Each email contains one action item, followed by updates on what's happening with other issue areas. Take a look below and make your voice heard on Capitol Hill!

Tell HUD and DOJ to Protect Families in Alabama from Hostile Housing Situations
The passage of HB 56 in Alabama has wreaked havoc across that state.  Yesterday, the Alabama Coalition for Immigration Justice launched its One Family, One Alabama campaign to repeal this unconstitutional, anti-immigrant law.  Eleven members of Congress as well as civil rights, labor, and faith community leaders joined yesterday’s launch at the historic Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in Birmingham.  

Many of the consequences of the law have yet to be clearly understood.  For example, Hispanic families in Alabama are facing heightened housing discrimination after the passage of this draconian law.  Mobile home rentals are one area of particular concern after a new licensing law went into place on November 15.  The total ramifications are unclear, but advocates on the ground are very concerned about evictions and the targeting of families who are unable to renew their mobile home tags.

A family’s home should be the one place where parents and children feel safe.   

Alabama’s HB 56 is causing widespread fear and intimidation among immigrant households and the broader community of color.  We strongly urge the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate violations of the Fair Housing Act and take a zero-tolerance approach to housing discrimination.  

Send a letter to HUD and DOJ and ask them to protect Alabama’s families from housing violations and discrimination. 

This month in...
Wealth-Building
You did it!  Funding for housing counseling has been restored!  With Congress making major cuts to federal programs, it was an uphill battle to restore funding to a program that had previously been zeroed out.  The House and Senate finalized a conference report that included $45 million for the HUD housing counseling program.  This is an important success, but it’s only part of the battle.  Stay tuned to NCLR’s Home for Good campaign for updates on our fight to end the housing crisis. 

Education
The Senate continues to make headway on the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, but thus far, the bill does not serve the interests of Latino students.  Even though the bill includes reforms for college- and career-ready standards and assessments, weak accountability measures would leave behind students of color and English language learners (ELLs).  NCLR has signed on to a statement along with 29 other civil rights organizations, stating that we cannot support the bill in its current form.  NCLR continues to advocate for the inclusion of measurable achievement and progress targets to ensure that Latino and ELL children have access to a high-quality education.

Economy and Employment
Both the House and the Senate have introduced the “Pathways Back to Work Act” (H.R. 3425).  “Pathways Back to Work” will leverage the success of the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act by funding additional subsidized employment activities.  Funds will provide programming for unemployed, low-income adults by building on the Recovery Act’s Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) emergency fund, as well as on the success of promising strategies under the Workforce Investment Act.  This legislation will also fund summer and year-round employment opportunities for low-income youth to help young people stay engaged in their studies and gain on-the-job experience.  Tell your members of Congress to vote in favor of the “Pathways Back to Work Act”!

Health 
Great news!  Earlier this fall, the “Healthy Equity and Accountability Act of 2011” (HEAA) was introduced by members of the Tri-Caucus, composed of the Hispanic, Black, and Asian Pacific American caucuses of the U.S. Congress.  This comprehensive bill would build on the gains of the health care reform law to improve the health and well-being of Latinos and other communities of color.  In a series of blogs, NCLR provides a perspective on why we need the “HEAA,” how its introduction marks considerable progress over the past decade, and how the specific bill would promote health equity for Latinos, immigrants, and ultimately, us all.  

Social Security
Social Security has always paid its own way through dedicated taxes and currently has a large surplus.  It does not contribute to the federal deficit, yet some propose to use it as a piggy bank to fund the nation’s budget.  Its promise, which is so critical to millions of retirees, low-income workers, and their families, should not be threatened.  On the contrary, we must take steps to ensure that this program is made stronger for future generations of workers who will be more diverse in terms of race and ethnicity.

The desire to work together to build a better future is why many of us—including the AFL-CIO’s president, Richard Trumka—have dedicated ourselves to America’s labor movement.

When I read this new profile of President Trumka in Esquire, this quote, in particular, spoke to me:

"I don't care how steep the hill….We won't end until we have an America where every worker can support their family and have some dignity and some retirement security, where every kid gets a chance at a great education and a better way of life."

It would be funny if it wasn't true.

On Friday, Newt Gingrich seriously proposed firing union janitorial staff at public schools and putting poor children to work instead. Here's what he said:

"I tried for years to have a very simple model. These schools should get rid of unionized janitors, have one master janitor, pay local students to take care of the school. The kids would actually do work; they'd have cash; they'd have pride in the schools. They'd begin the process of rising."

Great idea, right? Let's fire janitors and hire their children instead. Let's assign children as young as nine years old to do hard manual labor and clean up after their more fortunate classmates.

This is what happens when you pursue a single-minded vision to destroy organized labor. Please let Newt Gingrich know that his "idea" is outrageous - and then let your friends, family and others know exactly what kind of hogwash Gingrich is proposing.

I must say the fact that in the 21st century, and with record unemployment, a Presidential candidate is seriously talking about resurrecting child labor is extremely disturbing. That's why we can't let it continue. 

Thank you, as always, for your action today. 

In solidarity,

AFL-CIO urges unions to treat Occupy DC as picket line
By Tim Craig
Washington Post Blog
November 21, 2011

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/dc-wire/post/afl-cio-urges-unions-to-treat-occupy-dc-as-picket-line/2011/11/21gIQAxEeLjN_blog.html

With Congressional leaders announcing Monday they had
failed to reach consensus on how to cut the federal
deficit, the Occupy Wall Street protesters traveling
from New York to the District are picking up the pace.

For nearly two weeks, dozens of protesters have been
walking to the District to raise visibility and prepare
to take their frustrations with perceived income
equality to the U.S. Capitol.

Although the group was initially expected to arrive
early Wednesday, it now plans to arrive Tuesday
morning.

Occupy DC protesters plan to meet the marchers, who
left Baltimore Monday morning, near the Rhode Island
Metro station about 10 a.m. Tuesday. From there, the
protesters plan to march to McPherson Square, where a
noon press conference is scheduled, organizers said.
Later in the day, the will kick off two days of
demonstrations aimed at Congress, according to the
Occupy DC website.

The arrival of the marchers, who will have traveled 231
miles since Nov. 9, comes as the movement locally is
getting a major boost of support from regional labor
leaders.

At its 28th biannual convention on Saturday, the
Maryland State and District of Columbia AFL-CIO
approved a resolution calling on its members to treat
Occupy encampments in the District and Baltimore as
they would a formal picket line.

The resolution states the AFL-CIO will support any
"unionized or non-unionized worker who refuses to break
up, raid or confiscate the belongings of protesters."

It also calls "on unions representing public workers
and public safety workers to not participate in such
activity as to deny the rights of occupiers."

"Protest movements, like strike lines and organizing
campaigns do not have curfews and are not 9 to 5
activities," the resolution states. "And in doing so,
we recognize and will work to protect the right for
occupiers to protest 24 hours a day, on-site, with
proper protection, including food, medical supplies,
water and tents."

Despite police raids on numerous Occupy Wall Street
encampments around the country, protesters in Baltimore
and the District have so far been allowed to pitch
tents in high-profile locations, including McPherson
Square on K Street Downtown. Though local unions have
already been supporting the protesters, including
offering them jackets and access to showers, the new
AFL-CIO resolution could make it more difficult for
local elected leaders to push to break up the camps.

Fred Mason, president of the Maryland State and D.C.
AFL-CIO, called it is the "height of hypocrisy" for
some business and community leaders to complain about
sanitation at the camps when they had previously
remained quiet about the conditions facing the
homeless.

"We see these trends developing across the country,"
Mason said. "We see what's happening in New York and
California, and all of these things don't happen at
once.We want to provide every kind of support we can so
they can continue."

The AFL-CIO also voted to give $3,000 each to Occupy DC
and Occupy Baltimore.

D.C. Mayor Vincent C. Gray (D), who relied heavily on
union support during his 2010 campaign, was at the AFL-
CIO convention when the resolution was voted on. On
Monday, Gray said he supports the protestors right to
demonstrate, but added the city will respond when laws
are violated.

Mason, however, noted that the AFL-CIO approved a
separate resolution in May endorsing civil disobedience
as a way of expressing frustration with the nation's
economic system.
