I was thinking of wearing a button to work tomorrow...
Well, not so much a button, more like a home-made paper heart saying "I SUPPORT MY BROTHERS & SISTERS IN WI" and maybe adding "AND I SUPPORT _YOU_!!", hoping that the person who sees it will get that I'm standing up for all workers, and that I appreciate the customer who supports me by shopping at the store.

I guess it's a little pie in the sky... I'll probably be asked to remove it or get fired. I work in a so-called 'right to work' state.

Just wondering what I could possibly do to show my support. Any suggestions?

1. Join their Facebook pages & listserves & any other means by which Calls to Action are made,
then click to sign their petitions and/or make the phone calls they request of you. Watch for Labor rallies in your area and go, if possible. Try to meet any anti- union, bigotry & union-busting verbal support with well reasoned pleasant responses.

2. We are One

Solidarity
Union
Tax the Rich

keep it short... me? I'm putting a bumber sticker on my care that says:

"If you are not making over $150,000, there is never any reason to vote Republican - It is not shared sacrifice until EVERYONE Sacrifices"

3. Excellent, but I'd raise it to $250,000
