Subject: MAY DAY - ILWU CALL FOR ACTION AGAINST IRAK WAR
Dear all,
The International Longshoremen and Warehouse Union (ILWU) has launched a call for action against the Irak War.
The ILWU has requested the IDC to spread the call amongst all our affiliated unions for support.
Also, the ILWU is starting negotiations for the renewal of their contract which is due on 1 July. They would very much welcome any statements of solidarity along with photos of dockworkers from your unions who wish to express their support for our upcoming negotiations.
In the attached file you will find all the information regarding the resolution and the contact numbers for additional information or where to send the support messages.
For further information:
