Baltimore: Unemployment benefits now! Speak out and picket line, May 22

SATURDAY, MAY 22, 2021 AT 2 PM EDT – 3 PM EDT
Unemployment Benefits Now! Speak Out & Picket Line
1100 N. Eutaw Street, Baltimore

Thousands have yet to receive their benefits due under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and face evictions, foreclosures, car repossessions and more.
Join a unemployed workers’ speak-out and picket line. The event will be held on Saturday, May 22, 2 p.m. at 1100 N. Eutaw St., Baltimore. Unemployed workers, friends, family and supporters are encouraged to come out and participate.

The state government is violating the CARES Act. Our benefits belong to us! Bills are due now — it’s life and death for us! We say: Service now — no more games, pay up! Unemployment benefits are a right!

It’s time to form an Unemployed Workers Union so that we can more effectively fight together.
