Council 31 -
This week will mark the 17th month that AFSCME members at Heartland Human Services in Effingham have been on the picket line.
On Friday, December 12 the Council will be hosting a Christmas Party for the Heartland workers beginning at 6:00 PM at VFW Post 769, 2304 Veterans Drive in Effingham. Joining the festivities will be Pat Quinn, the Lieutenant Governor of Illinois.
We would like to invite each of you to attend the party and to bring gifts -- foodstuffs, toys, giftcards, or whatever your local would like to donate -- to the workers and their families.
If you prefer, or if you cannot attend and would like to write a check, you may make it payable to the Solidarity Holiday Fund and send it to the Council 31 office in Springfield. We have enclosed a form for your convenience.
We hope that you can join the party to show your solidarity with our brothers and sisters who are spending their second holiday season on the picket line.
I look forward to seeing you there.
