Continuing the Fight Against Wage Theft

September 19, 2017, 5:30pm - September 19, 2017, 7:30pm

Painting Experts USA, Inc., continues to refuse payment to the 15 painters who worked for them in the spring. The owner, Pedro Castillo, now claims there were only two workers involved in this. He has not even paid those two. We have hald two protests at the business location before. (It is also the business owner's residence, but it is a legitmate target for a labor protest since the business is conducted from this location.) Last week, we phoned the owner. He gave no indication that he would pay. We will be out there with signs and chants again this Tuesday in a nonviolent protest. There is parking on the street. Join us to protest wage theft!

Solidarity with Auto Mecanics on Strike

September 15, 2017, 5:00pm - September 15, 2017, 8:00pm

Park in the Jewel-Osco lot on the SW corner, then cross at the light and walk west on the north side of Aurora Avenue to Gerald Kia. We will meet there, and some of us will walk a half mile west to Gerald Subaru. Bring a treat if you can, home-baked or bought at Jewel or Costco (union retailers), but don't let that suggestion keep you from coming. The mechanics hav been very resolute in their strike for fair calcuation of hours and a sensivle lenght to their apprenticeship program, which is currently artificially extended to keep the wage cost to the dealers down. As of September 1, they are paying their own insurance cost completely on COBRA. A few of the smaller dealers broke from the dealers' group and settled on a favorable basis. Our presence will support the mechanics and encourage settlement.

Auto Mechanics Solidarity Event

August 31, 2017, 5:00pm - August 31, 2017, 8:00pm

Showing solidarity with the striking auto mechanics by joining their picket line at Gerald Kia and Gerald Subaru. Meet at Kia, 1661 Aurora Ave. Park in the Jewel lot on the SW corner, cross the street at the light. Bring treats if you can: Home-baked goods would be very nice. If you buy a treat, get it at Jewel or Costco (union stores). But, come anyway, even if you can't bring a treat, for whatever time you have available. THE STRIKE IS STILL ON at these dealers, verified today by wreck-an-oystering. They are not with the dealers who settled individually.
