Voter ID

“Voter ID” Amendment:

Attacking Democracy in

Minnesota!!!!

Our right to vote is a fundamental right. That right is now under attack.

The  MN Legislature is considering an amendment to the Minnesota Constitution that would take away that right and make it a privilege that only people with the proper ID can vote.

Military ID’s are not valid. Those who have an ID to fight for our country cannot use that ID to vote.

Recently Moved? Unless you have a photo ID with your current address you cannot vote.

Who might not have the proper ID?????

18 % of elderly citizens do not.

15 % of people earning less than $35,000 a year do not.

18 % of citizens 18-24 years old do not.

10 % of voters with disabilities do not.

25% of voting-age African American citizens do not.

 

Join in!!!!!

We need to be a visible presence for Minnesotans who oppose Voter ID!

The voter suppression bill is going to be heard in committee at the legislature this Wednesday, February 1st at 1:00 pm. Join us at the Capitol Room 15.

Unite Here Supports Famine Relief Efforts

 

         Somalia is facing Famine that US Secretary of State, Hillary Rodham Clinton has called, "the most severe humanitarian emergency in the world today—and the worst East Africa has seen in decades." Tens of thousands of Somalis have already died; most are children. People are streaming into refugee camps at numbers too high to support.

 

         UNITE HERE Local 17 and UNITE HERE International Union are glad to be able to extend financial support to our Somali members and their families in this great time of need. The combination of drought and civil war brought the Horn of African the worst famine in 60 years. This is the homeland of many of Local 17’s members here in the Twin Cities and UNITE HERE members in other cities. The combined donation of $6,000 was donated and matched by ARC, American Refugee Committee.
