Worker Memorial Day, April 28, 2016


From Judy Pierce, President
Wichita Hutchinson Labor Federation
Every year in late April, the unions of the AFL-CIO observe Workers Memorial Day to remember those who have suffered and died on the job and to renew our efforts for safe workplaces. This year the struggle continues to create good jobs in this country that are safe and healthy and to ensure the freedom of workers to form unions and, through their unions, to speak out and bargain for respect and a better future. It’s time for our country to fulfill the promise of safe jobs for all.
Please join the Wichita / Hutchinson Labor Federation as we commemorate Workers Memorial Day with our annual dinner onThursday April 28th, 6pm at the Machinist Hall – 3830 S. Meridian, Wichita. We will have a free catered dinner from Stroud’s Fried Chicken as we remember those Kansas Workers who lost their lives on the job and renew our commitment to fight for good, SAFE, jobs.
Interfaith Worker Justice, Kansas is proud to be an affiliate of the Wichita Hutchinson Labor Federation and a participant in this event.
