The Committee for New Priorities and the Global Justice Committee of Chicago JWJ invite you to a Forum for New Priorities:

Report from India: Reversing the Race to the Bottom

How can unions fight for a living wage in Asia? What can be done about privatization in health care and education? And what about all the U.S. jobs being outsourced to Asia?

Hear about the exciting New Trade Union Initiative (NTUI) in India, representing over a million workers, from one of its leaders – and from two Chicago activists who attended its founding conference in March.

When: Tuesday, May 9, 7:00 pm
Where: UNITE HERE, 333 S. Ashland Ave., Chicago

Speakers:
Ashim Roy: General Secretary of the NTUI; President of several unions representing more than 20,000 workers at General Electric in Gujarat
Saket Soni: Community organizer and immigrant-rights activist from Chicago
Amisha Patel: Community Coordinator, Service Employees International Union Local 73
Moderated by James Thindwa: Executive Director, Chicago Jobs With Justice
