2007 Day of Action
May 17, 2007

Washington, DC

On May 17th, 2007, the IAM held a Day of Action in Washington, DC, on the mall area facing the Capitol Building.  Our Local had several members attend this rally, along with myself, on their own time.  I would like to thank them, on behalf of the Local.  These members met at 5 am and flew to Baltimore on Southwest and then took a bus to the train at Union Station, then walked to the Capitol Building.  The members day did not end until 12 midnight or later, and some went to work the next day.  The following is the list of those who attended:
