PRESS RELEASE:

NEEDED: A Global Campaign to Win Internationally Recognized Labor Rights for the Workers of Iraq!

In the wake of the unlawful and immoral U.S.-led invasion and occupation of Iraq, the U.S. government is now awarding billions of dollars in contracts to U.S. corporations - including some with corrupt, scandal-ridden, anti-labor histories and close ties to the Bush administration - for the "reconstruction" of that country. These companies obviously intend to profit handsomely from the devastation of Iraq while privatizing and putting under foreign control as much of Iraq's industry, services and wealth as they can get their hands on.

1. Thanks for posting this, VaLabor

I saved it to my hard drive and am going to send it around to friends. Maybe I should send it to those who killed our unionization vote at work this week.
