* We will assemble at 1 PM in Union Park (on Ashland just north of Washington) and march to Plumbers Hall.

Governor Rauner is holding the state budget hostage to his anti-union agenda, no matter the harm the impasse is causing to those who depend on public services. The governor is also holding hostage tens of thousands of state employees, insisting on extreme demands in union contract negotiations.

We're coming together to rally at seven locations across Illinois. We'll send a clear message to the governor that all workers deserve a voice on the job, family-supporting wages, affordable health care and dignity in retirement, and every Illinois resident deserves access to the vital public services that state and local government provide.
