In what was the largest rally by organized labor in memory for us older folks, Omaha got an eye full. The busiest intersection in the state rarely sees anything like this. All four corners with people packed side by side. One side was a full block long. Union workers holding signs demanding to PASS the Free Choice Act Now! Most unions had members present. The happy crowd cheered every car that honked it's horn. One pretty young lady in a convertible yelled to an iron worker "I LOVE YOU". These are the good times during the bad times.

I was interviewed by a local independent media individual. Look for coverage on all 4 Omaha stations. KMTV, WOWT, KETV, and KPTM. The Omaha World Herald (omaha.com) was there too. I'll be in bed before the stories hit the air waves.
