hey guys, PWR and national USAS are doing a
quick action at ALCOA headquarters in Pittsburgh
along with Pitt Students in Solidarity and some
other groups. Rafael Salinas, a leader from their
independent union in Mexico is in town for this
action. It'll be really quick in the middle of
the day, we'll go down, leaflet and present petitions,
get some press attention, and come back. We'll meet at
the UC turnaround at 11:30am and be back before 1pm.
Myself, Alisha, and possibly one more person will drive.
For more info check out the press release here:

thanks
matt
