Also, a May 1 Budget Finance Committee hearing has been called by John
Avalos to consider San Francisco Department of Recreation and Parks'
privatizing its workforce and undermining the gardening apprenticeship
program started by Laborers Local 261. *Come to the hearing to support
the gardening apprenticeship program and put a halt to bad labor
practices at San Francisco Rec and Park.*

The community based apprenticeship program strengthens our workforce and
promotes passionate, skilled gardeners who improve parks and other open
spaces in our city. Come show your support for this partnership between
our labor unions and environmental activists. The rally will start at
noon. John Avalos, other Supervisors, and Michelle Myers from the Sierra
Club will be speaking.

Support workers and the environment on May 1! Join the rally at noon and
come to the hearing at 1 p.m.!

*You can RSVP online.
