Could you imagine a Philadelphia without libraries, firefighters, trash collection, or even basic after school activities for our children?
Could you imagine a city that serves only its billionaires, and taxes only its poor?
Could you imagine a city without livable jobs?
That's the Philadelphia that C.E.O.'s at big businesses like Comcast, Verizon, and Sunoco would love to make a reality.
Tomorrow, with our neighbors, our co-workers, we fight back.
Tomorrow, we take our fight for jobs and a fair economy to the streets.
Tomorrow, we tell big business: pay your fair share.
Join us in part of a nationwide Emergency Day of Action for jobs.
When:: 12 pm - 1 pm, Wednesday, 9/15/2010
Where: : Corner of Broad and Walnut Sts., Philadelphia
What:: SOS Jobs: A Rally for Jobs
Don't let City Council forget that this is a city of people, not corporations. Let's remind them what a fair city economy looks like: funding for city services, fair employment, and an end to tax breaks for millionaire and billionaire corporations.

Corporate America isn't going to know what hit 'em.
