Sign up for the Longview Caravan from Oakland, Portland and elsewhere throughout the West Coast. Time and place TBA.

ILWU rank and file and Occupies in Longview and along the West Coast are organizing to blockade a grain ship coming to Longview. This ship is supposed to load cargo from the EGT terminal using scab labor. The exact date will not be known until 3-4 days in advance, but is expected to be sometime in mid-January. You will be contacted as soon as caravan organizers receive word from Longview that the ship is on its way.

This solidarity action will directly challenge "Wall Street on the Waterfront" as well as send a clear message to the 1% that workers will no longer tolerate attacks on our wages, conditions and benefits. See you in Longview!

If you can caravan from Oakland, PLEASE PUT OAKLAND! Otherwise, tell us where you are coming from and we will attempt to connect you with the nearest Occupy or labor solidarity group.
