Ramblin’ Gamblin’ Solidarity Tour IV



Steelworkers Solidarity Bus Trip


United Steelworkers Local 675 is taking solidarity on the road.  We’ve organized a “turnaround trip” to Las Vegas with two stops:


At our first stop, we’ll be showing our solidarity with locked out Rio Tinto Mine Workers from Boron, CA, at a rally and picket at the British Consulate in Los Angeles


The second stop, in Las Vegas, will be in support of members of our Local who have been working without a contract for two years!  Workers at the Aquarius Hotel and Casino in Laughlin, Nevada, have gone without a raise for over two years!  We’ll be helping these workers let the Aquarius’ parent company, Goldman Sachs, know that they’re ready to do what it takes!  This rally will kick off the workers’ 100 mile march to Laughlin with the slogan, “Let’s bring Las Vegas wages to Laughlin now!”


This will be our fourth trip across the desert.  With each trip we have more fun!  You know you want to go!  Call 310/522-2277 for more information or to sign up!
