| Culled from a SEIU media advisory:
A community rally in support of good jobs to speed Virginia's economic recovery will be held tomorrow, Wed., Feb. 25, 11am at the Capitol Square Bell Tower, 900 Bank Street in Richmond. Economic policy advisors, faith leaders, community advocacy organizations, and workers are joining together to call on businesses and elected officials to put Virginia back on track by creating an economy that works for everyone.
On the heels of passage of the economic recovery package, workers and community leaders will discuss the need to ensure that the money flowing into Virginia creates good jobs so that working people can speed the state's economic recovery by spending money again.
The event also follows the release of a new report by the Center for American Progress (CAP) that shows greater unionization Could pump $49 Billion into the U.S. economy, including $947 Million into Virginia.
