[Gloria]

Got this email and thought I'd pass it on if you don't want to go to Walmart!!


Dear Working Families e-Activist:

You have done so many special things this year that we're happy
to offer an online store where you can purchase sweat-free,
union-made-in-the-USA holiday gifts for your friends and family.
But hurry--holiday orders must be placed by the end of the day
Wednesday, Dec. 17.

The Union Shop Online--the AFL-CIO's retail store for
activists--features top-quality union pride clothing and gifts.
Click on the link below to browse for everything from fleece

CLOTHING: At The Union Shop Online you'll find dozens of gifts
that carry your values of social and economic justice. Check out
the cozy fleece, baseball jackets and knit watch caps--proudly
made by UNITE members:

MUGS: Need to stuff some stockings? People love sipping cider
from our "Make Your Voice Heard" thermal mug.

MUSIC: Kick off the new year with a good beat. Get a CD that has
a powerful message with the music-like "Drop the Debt," some
Sweet Honey in the Rock, Billy Bragg or Boston-punk band The
Dropkick Murphy's.

VIDEO: Time off during the holidays? Pop in a video or DVD with
a justice-for-workers theme-maybe "Newsies," "Norma Rae" or "The
Full Monty."

classics to contemporary hot sellers line Al Franken's "Lies and
the Lying Liars Who Tell Them" and Molly Ivins' "Bushwhacked"

is in her union."

Gotta love it!!

Gonna get some of those pins and give them to fellow DK supporters. Around here, the only candidate standing up for unions is DK.
