Organized Workers for Labor Solidar-
ity (OWLS) , a group of rank-and-file
labor activists from several unions
and unorganized workplaces, will
picket the Freedom Foundation ’s an-
nual fundraiser Sept. 29 in front of
the Bellevue Westin at NE 6th Street
and Bellevue Way, NE, Bellvue,
Wash. Carpenters Local 30 and
Washington Federation of State
Employees Local 304 have en-
dorsed the action. The Freedom
Foundation is a right-wing think
tank that is aligned with big busi-
ness and wealthy conservative
groups such as the American Leg-
islative Exchange Council (ALEC)
and National Right to Work Foun-
dation. The Freedom Foundation’s
agenda openly declares its goal is
to “defund and bankrupt public em-
ployee unions.” It has continued ef-
forts to make Washington a “right
to work” state, and to roll back re-
cent minimum wage increases and
other labor gains. The Foundation
recently filed lawsuits to stop the
City of Seattle’s proposed tax on
high income earners, and to prevent
unionization of Uber and Lyft driv-
ers.The Foundation’s keynote
speaker will be fast-food billionaire
Andrew Puzder, who was Donald
Trump’s first pick for Secretary of
Labor. The former CEO of CKE
Restaurants, Inc. (Carl’s Jr.,
Hardee’s, etc.), is well known for
his opposition to minimum wage
laws and other worker protections.
Picketing will be held from 5 to 7
p.m. For more information, call
Maxine Reigel at 206-949-4552 or
Patrick Burns at 206-261-1420, or
email OWLS at OWLS@riseup.net.
