Democracy Awakening Takes on the 1%
More than 400 CWA activists came to the U.S. Capitol to join in “Democracy Awakening,” a mass movement of workers, people of faith, civil rights and citizen action groups, environmentalists and many others. Our goals are to get big money out of politics, stop the attack on voting rights and restore a government that is of, by and for the people, not the 1 percent.
Nearly 80 CWAers engaged in civil disobedience and were arrested, including CWA President Chris Shelton, VPs Claude Cummings and Lisa Bolton and Secretary-Treasurer Sara Steffens.
