On November 10, we’re holding a national day of action

On November 10, we’re holding a national day of action to support $15 an hour and union rights. Believe me, you want to be there.
As fast-food workers across the country go on STRIKE on November 10, people across the country will be coming together to stand with them, with child care workers and with all 64 million underpaid workers making less than $15. Because it’s TIME for $15.

Together we’re turning the tide in favor of working people and our families. And we’ll need everyone’s help – including yours – to make this a reality.

Sign up now (at link) to let us know you’ll be there on November 10 and be one of millions demanding the fair pay, respect, and the future we deserve!

It's supported by the Service Employees International Union, is gathering momentum, and has had/contributed to some real successes, including the $15 minimum wage included in the 2016 Democratic Party platform.

I'm signed up. I checked their site and didn't find that anything is happening in the small towns around here but was happy to learn they are planning on protesting at the next GOP debate.
