The reign of Snyder has been nothing but a full frontal assault on working-people, including attacking their right to organize and even passing a new EFM law right after voters overturned it. The people of Detroit and Michigan and the entire country need to stand up and fight, along with workers who are doing so around the world, and say no to more austerity no more attacks on workers. Make the bankers and the capitalists pay!
