Join the Philadelphia Security Officers Union and Jobs with Justice as they hold a “welcoming party” for incoming museum CEO, Timothy Rub. These Workers will advocate for the Employee Free Choice Act!
• Security Guards at the museum earn less than $20,000 per year, below the federal poverty line.
• The Philadelphia Security Officers Union supports the Employee Free Choice Act.
• We have signed up a majority of the security officers at the Philadelphia Museum on union representation cards.
• If the Employee Free Choice Act was law right now, we would already be a union.
What: March with the Philadelphia Security Officers Union in support of card check and the Employee Free Choice Act
Where: The Philadelphia Museum of Art, front “Rocky” steps
When: 2:00 pm—3:30 pm, come early and take advantage of the free day at the museum
MUSIC: This event will feature NYC’s Rude Mechanical Orchestra.
Also join us for the premier of the documentary about our campaign on August 26, 2009 at 6:30 pm at the Media Mobilizing Project office, located at 4205 W. Chestnut Ave

Student Labor Action Project
As Philadelphia students and youth we commit ourselves to the struggles of working class people in this city and to the fight against all forms of oppression including racism, sexism, and homophobia. We stand for equality, the rights of workers, justice, and democracy. We are against the corporatization of education and aim to make our universities fully accountable to the communities they were built to serve. We believe that direct action wins working class families better working conditions, affordable health care, paid sick days. SLAP provides dedicated student leaders with the skills and tools necessary to affect meaningful change for workers on our campuses and in our communities through trainings, events, and actions.
