LOCAL Announcement :: Labor

Tuesday March 1: March to demand jobs and a fair severance package for Frederick Cooper workers!

March to demand jobs and a fair severance package for Frederick Cooper workers!
Support community demands for balanced development!
Tomorrow, Tuesday evening, March 1st, Ald. Manny Flores will hold his Community Meeting to discuss possible zoning changes at the Frederick Cooper Lamps site with neighborhood residents and hear their feedback.

Workers from Frederick Cooper will meet at the factory at 6:00 PM and march to the meeting. They are going to support the community in their demands to stop out of control condo development. They are demanding jobs and a decent severance package from the owners of their company. Their sell-out union representatives in Teamsters Local 743 have rolled over and accepted the company's lousy offer - pennies for severance and no offer of jobs if the company reopens in the Chicago area.

Gather at Frederick Cooper factory,
2545 W. Diversey, 6:00 PM

March to Ald. Flores' zoning meeting, Brentano School, 2723 N. Fairfield Ave. The zoning meeting starts at 6:30 p.m.
