Protestors went to Chicago City Council Meeting yesterday to let our local elected officials know of their fight for over $100 Million dollars in community jobs and contracts that are NOT coming to the local communities as required by the federal Section 3 laws requiring it!! And letting our local leaders know about the community distrust for Walsh Construction Company. They got NO response from CHA so the public demonstrations at CHA will continue TODAY starting at 11:00 AM!!
Join the continued press conference and economic empowerment protest from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM at CHA Headquerters June 26th
Today, can our media continue to cover youth and young adults fighting for legal jobs versus marching about violence and death that comes from lack of jobs in desperate economic community conditions? Lets cover the fight against economic violence too on the front side versus the physical violence on the backside. Join the continued press conference and economic empowerment protest from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM in front of CHA Headquarters located at 60 East VanBuren Thursday June 26th from Altgeld and low income city residents, current and former CHA residents, contractors, workers and members of No Dope Express, Save Our Community Coalition, National Black Wall Street Chicago and others to against Walsh Construction Company being allegedly awarded or considered as a General Contractor for Atlgeld or any CHA community contracting and for CHA to meet with the community for a new transparent process to stop the exclusion and new INCLUSION in the federal Section 3 mandates for over $100 Million Dollars in contracts and jobs for the community !
