Utah miners plan tour in California to win support BY FRANK MILLER, The Militant
HUNTINGTON, Utah—Striking workers at the Co-Op coal mine here are launching their first speaking tour outside Utah to win support in their battle for union recognition. Over the past few weeks, solidarity with the miners’ battle has widened in many parts of the country.
Support for the miners continues to broaden across the country. In St. Paul, Minnesota, a solidarity message was sent with the signatures of several people who took part in a December 18 union social sponsored by United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 789. Among the signers were Local 789 president Don Seaquist; Ramsey County Commissioner Victoria Reinhart; John Massetti, secretary-treasurer of Machinists Local Lodge 143; and Ben Miller, a field agent for the Lakes and Plains Regional Council of the Carpenters.
The message stated, “Your fight is important to us and to other workers in this country. An injury to one is an injury to all! In the union there is strength! ¡En la union está la fuerza!”------------------------------------------- posted 9:01 AM :: reference link ::
