[mgj-discuss] Valentine's Day march for Janitors

[Martin Thomas]

Friday, 2/14: Health Care for Janitors 
4:30P; Franklin Park, 13th St. NW & K St 

SHOW YOUR LOVE FOR JANITORS: DC janitors will march
to the American Medical Association on Valentine's
Day to highlight their need for health care. Contracts
covering more than 4,000 DC janitors (members of SEIU
82) expire April 30th and health care is a top issue
on the table. AMA headquarters are cleaned by janitors
who receive no health care benefits, despite AMA claims
to be working on addressing the disparity between the
world's most advanced health care system and the lack
of health care among many minority groups in the United
States. SEIU Local 82 members will join janitors and
other supporters in spotlighting their fight for health
care for all janitors in the nation's capitol.
