FIGHT FOR FAMILY WAGE JOBS AND WORKING FAMILES
Our region has the opportunity to build new export facilities that will create thousands of new family-‐wage jobs and bring in billons of dollars in new investment.
STAND WITH LABOR TO PUBLICLY DEMONSTRATE OUR SUPPORT FOR THE GATEWAY PACIFIC TERMINAL AND THE JOBS IT WILL CREATE!
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the WA Department of Ecology are holding public scoping hearings on the proposed Gateway Pacific Terminal project and we need you to attend.
What: A chance to fight for family wage jobs and a strong Northwest economy at the
