🔥Bernie Sanders will be in Philly on May Day for rally with AFL-CIO

Sen. Bernie Sanders will be in Philadelphia on Thursday for a May Day union rally as he embarks on a three-day tour of Pennsylvania in the same week that President Donald Trump marks his 100th day in office.

Sanders will attend a May Day event on Thursday, hosted by Philadelphia’s AFL-CIO chapter, called the “Workers over Billionaires” rally. The event is scheduled for 4 p.m. outside the north side of City Hall. Access for the public begins at 3:15 p.m.

“Bernie knows that when the working class — labor, immigrants, community members — stand together, we are [a] force that can defeat any bad boss,” the union chapter posted on Facebook.

May Day, also known as International Workers’ Day, falls on May 1 and is intended to celebrate workers rights. The day often draws protests on a range of economic and political issues.

Join labor, immigrant, and community organizations united, with special guest Senator Bernie Sanders, to say invest in people, not the billionaires. We are united and rising up for a world that works for all of us, not just Elon Musk and his cronies. The rally will be followed by a march.
