UNEMPLOYED WORKERS UNION WILL FILE CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT ON THURSDAY

PRESS CONFERENCE, THURSDAY, JUNE 24, 9 AM SHARP @ CUMMINGS COURTHOUSE, 111 N. CALVERT ST, BALTIMORE (MEET AT 8:30 AM)

We will be filing our lawsuit in court this Thursday, June 24, 2021, which is the first step before an actual hearing is set.  

Everyone is included in the suit regardless of whether you are in the smaller group of named plaintiffs. We are asking the court to certify a large class: all unemployed workers in Maryland who filed for benefits. Every grievance, every statement filled out and recorded has the potential to be used as evidence.

Along with winning unemployment benefits for all of those who have yet to receive their payments, we are asking for an injunction on Governor Hogan's halting federal pandemic benefits.

Again please meet us at 8:30 AM, Thursday outside the Cummings Courthouse at 111 N. Calvert Street, Baltimore 21202. Our attorney will then file at 9:30 AM. We are asking as many people as possible, especially unemployed workers and their supporters, to attend.  

We will Livestream, and the media will be present.

Please meet us at 8:30 AM, so that we are ready. The event will begin at 9 AM sharp.

Don't forget:

UNEMPLOYED & WORKERS RIGHTS CLINIC from: 6 PM to 8 PM at 2011 N. Charles Street, Baltimore, MD 21218

THANK YOU AGAIN to all who have participated in filling out grievances, spoken out at the Town Hall meeting, and attended the Annapolis and other protests. We have learned that since speaking out some workers have received their benefits. Wonderful! It proves that standing up for what is right counts! We will not rest until everyone receives their deserved benefits.

An injury to one, is an injury to all!

Today, 31 December, is the “Solidarity Day” of all Azerbaijanis living in our native Azerbaijan and abroad, around the world. On December of 1989, Azerbaijanis living in Azerbaijan SSR (first in Nakhcivan and then along the rest of Aras-border) and Azerbaijanis in Azerbaijan provinces of Northern Iran began wide-scale protests and started to dismantle the barbed border fences to unite one people - 40 million strong Azerbaijani nation that was divided along the Aras River. Many Azerbaijanis living in different parts of the country travelled to the borderlands to reunite with their brothers and sisters. 31 December is that day when every year Azerbaijani people divided by the imperialist borders for 170 treacherous years, many seas and oceans come together once again. 

Yad qılıncı ilə qırıldıq, yetər!

Zülmə qarşı qalxaq, qul olduq, yetər!

Biz ayağa qalxsaq əgər, ayrılıq bitər.

Qalx ayağa, millət, boğmasınlar səsimizi!

Bir bayraq altında birləşdir bizi!

Haiti gripped by protests

After 15 years of a military occupation of Haiti, the United Nations “peacekeeping” force will close operations on Oct.15

By John Parker

Growing protests now gripping Haiti began last year in reaction to the announcement by President Jovenel Moïse’s government of up to 50 percent increases in fuel prices. Protests have shut down businesses, airports and legislative buildings.

What’s needed now here in the U.S. is more pressure on both the Democrats and Republicans, whose policies run counter to the interests of the people of Haiti, Venezuela and the world.
