CWAers Rally for Economic and Social Justice

CWAers joined U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders and many labor, environmental, healthcare, consumer, and other activists at a rally in Washington, DC, to mobilize for economic and social justice and equality as the incoming Trump administration takes office, and to celebrate the hard-fought win on defeating the TPP trade deal.

Sanders said, "On every important issue facing the American people – raising the minimum wage to a living wage, pay equity for women, rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure and creating millions of good paying jobs, or demanding that billionaires start paying their fair share of taxes – on all of those issues, the American people are behind us. And here is an issue where we have already succeeded. We have taken on corporate America and defeated the Trans-Pacific Partnership."
