On August 28, thousands will march from Foley Square to Wall Street to demand an economy that works for all of us—not just the wealthy few.
AFGE National President Everett Kelley will join Rev. Al Sharpton and the National Action Network, and other labor and community leaders on August 28, to march on Wall Street for economic justice and fair opportunities for all.
AFGE is fighting against the privatization of government services, and the contracting out of our jobs. The Trump administration is implementing these mass cuts to reward his billionaire supporters with government contracts. Putting Wall Street profit, over people.
We’re also fighting for fair pay for our work. Rents, groceries, and healthcare cost more while wages stay low. That’s why we’re going to the place where the money moves — Wall Street.
Join us in holding Wall Street accountable for perpetuating inequality and demand financial reforms that benefit everyone, regardless of background. Together, we can make a difference and create a more equitable society.
