Show Us the Jobs Tour

While the fight to protect overtime pay continues, starting this Wednesday, the AFL-CIO and WORKING AMERICA—a new community affiliate of the AFL-CIO—are joining together in a Show Us the Jobs bus tour—a journey through the heartland by 51 unemployed or struggling workers. Stopping in some of the towns and cities hardest hit by job loss, the workers on the tour will tell their personal stories of how America's jobs crisis has affected them, their families and their communities.

You can join their journey via the Show Us the Jobs website by clicking on the link below.

Once the tour is under way, you can read worker "blogs" from the road. A blog is a type of online journal. Also, we'll post daily video stories and news coverage so you can follow this journey for good jobs.

Thanks for all you do.

In Solidarity,
