MAYDAY! US Longshoremen 'Shut Her Down' WW Strike Call, May 1, 2008 - "No Work, No Peace Holiday"

ILWU calls for worldwide ‘No Peace, No Work Holiday’ to oppose US wars in Iraq, Afghanistan
5 March 2008

(Are The People finally starting to realize their last remaining right - the right to strike? May 1, May Day certainly seems like the appropriate day in more ways than one. I salute the International Longshoreman Membership for their courage, focus and activism. I join/support/respect the ILWU strike in a National MAYDAY to Save US in my own National Strike MAYDAY to Stop the War/Fixed Voting Day - Demand a 100% Secure Vote (the reason strikes are necessary - voting is fixed), or more simply a DRASTIC RETURN TO THE ENTIRE CONSTITUTION - THE BILL OF RIGHTS TO THE PEOPLE. On May 1, 2008, disinfranchised citizens* could/should respect the ILWU's strike to shut down the West Coast to have The People's voice heard and shut it all down (except emergency/vital activities).

Personally, I'm retired - so I can't be sick/schedule a day off/proclaim my patriotic duty/etc, but I will do my best to boycott every aspect of this government by boycotting financial transactions and protesting in a May Day MAYDAY to Support the ILWU's action to have The People's strength shown to a government that no longer needs to listen since voting/media information is fixed.)

W.Coast dockers to stop work May Day to oppose Iraq war

At the International Longshore & Warehouse Union’s annual Pacific Coast Longshore Caucus, an overwhelming majority of delegates voted to stop work during the day shift on Thursday, May 1, 2008 at every West Coast port, to express their opposition to the war in Iraq.

Delegates called on unions to mobilize for a “No work, no peace holiday” on May Day “to demand an immediate end to the war and occupation in Iraq and Afghanistan and the withdrawal of U.S. troops from the Middle East.” The union issued “an urgent appeal for unity of action to the AFL-CIO and the Change to Win Coalition…to bring an end to this bloody war once and for all.”

The Longshore Caucus, or convention, was meeting in San Francisco Jan. 28 to Feb. 8, to prepare for bargaining a new contract for ILWU members in ports up and down the West Coast. The current contract expires on July 1, 2008.

Letter Carriers local plans May Day action in solidarity with the ILWU

The ILWU also urged other unions to participate in similar events on May 1 to bring the Iraq war to an end and bring the troops home safely. In response, the 2,700-member Letter Carriers Union in San Francisco voted to observe 2 minutes of silence in all carrier stations at 8:15 a.m. on May 1st — in honor of International Workers’ Day, and in solidarity with the ILWU stop-work action, ”to express our opposition to the war in Iraq.”

The following resolution was adopted by the ILWU at its Pacific Coast Longshore Caucus:

ILWU resolution: For Workers’ Action to Stop the War

WHEREAS: On May 1, 2003, at the ILWU Convention in San Francisco resolutions were passed calling for an end to the war and occupation in Iraq; and

WHEREAS: ILWU took the lead among labor unions in opposing this bloody war and occupation for imperial domination; and

WHEREAS: Many unions and the overwhelming majority of the American people now oppose this bipartisan and unjustifiable war in Iraq and Afghanistan but the two major political parties, Democrats and Republicans continue to fund the war; and

WHEREAS: Millions worldwide have marched and demonstrated against the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan but have been unable to stop the wars; and

WHEREAS: ILWU’s historic dock actions, 1) like the refusal of Local 10 longshoremen to load bombs for the military dictatorship in Chile in 1978 and military cargo to the Salvadoran military dictatorship in 1981; and 2) the honoring of the Teachers Union antiwar picket May 19, 2007 against SSA in the port of Oakland — stand as a limited but shining example of how to oppose these wars; and

WHEREAS: The spread of war in the Middle East is threatened with U.S. air strikes in Iran or possible military intervention in Syria or the destabilized Pakistan; therefore be it

RESOLVED: That it is time to take labor’s protest to a more powerful level of struggle by calling on unions and working people in the U.S. and internationally to mobilize for a “No Peace, No Work Holiday” May 1, 2008 for 8 hours to demand an immediate end to the war and occupation in Iraq and Afghanistan and the withdrawal of U.S. troops from the Middle East; and further be it

RESOLVED: That a clarion call from the ILWU be sent with an urgent appeal for unity of action to the AFL-CIO, the Change to Win Coalition and all of the international labor organizations to which we are affiliated to bring an end to this bloody war once and for all. — Adopted by the ILWU Longshore Caucus, meeting in San Francisco, California, February 8, 2008

San Francisco Letter Carriers on May Day and the War

RESOLVED: That Branch 214 of the National Association of Letter Carriers, representing 2,700 letter carriers in the San Francisco Bay Area, request that carriers in all carrier stations observe 2 minutes of silence at 8:15 AM on May Day — May 1st, 2008 — in honor of International Workers Day and in solidarity with the ILWU longshore workers’ action in stopping work in all West Coast ports for 8 hours on May Day, to express our opposition to the war in Iraq.
— Adopted by NALC Branch 214, meeting in San Francisco March 5, 2008, by unanimous vote.

"ILWU to Shut Down West Coast Ports May 1 (2008) Demanding End to War in Iraq, Afghanistan"

In a major step for the U.S. labor movement, the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) has announced that it will shut down West Coast ports on May 1, to demand an immediate end to the war and occupation in Iraq and Afghanistan and the withdrawal of U.S. troops from the Middle East. This is the first time in decades that an American union has decided to undertake industrial action against a U.S. war. The action announced by the powerful West Coast dock workers union, to stop work to stop the war, should be taken up by unions and labor organizations throughout the United States and internationally. And the purpose of such actions should be not to beg the bourgeois politicians whose hands are covered with blood, having voted for every war budget for six and a half years, but a show of strength of the working people who make this country run, and who can shut it down!
