Spreading the word to stop so-called RTW

The Rev. Rudy Pulido, the St. Louis Labor Council’s faith liaison (standing with microphone) and Sal Valdez (Laborers Local 110), diversity outreach and marketing representative for Midwest LECET (Laborers-Employers Cooperation & Education Trust), delivered a message recently at the St. Louis Islamic Center about the harm so-called “right-to-work” will have on ALL workers in Missouri. Imam Eldin Susa (seated to Pulido’s left) invited Rev. Pulido and Valdez to speak to his congregation about the harmful anti-union, anti-worker law on May 19 and the petition currently in circulation to place so-called “right-to-work” on the ballot for voters to decide. Rev. Pulido and Valdez collected several signatures, and Valdez returned the next day for an event at the mosque to collect even more. – Labor Tribune photo
