「ウオール街を占拠せよ運動」は大型労組の支援を得て強化される By MoJo
Now, Big Labor is going to work: endorsing the protests, offering manpower and resources, and helping stage a major march
in New York City's financial district on Wednesday. They are adding organizing muscle, fresh energy, and greater numbers
to the boisterous demonstrations that began in downtown Manhattan more than two weeks ago.
今や大型労組が「ウオール街を占拠せよ」運動w支援し、マンパワーや資源を与え、抗議行動の運営を助ける。それはこの運動に
組織力と新鮮なエネルギーをあたえデモを大型化する。
Among those now jumping in is the New York State United Teachers (NYSUT), the Empire State's largest union, representing
600,000 educators.
The New York educators join labor unions representing more than two million additional workers that have recently broadcast
their support: the American Federation for State, County, and Municipal Workers (1.6 million members); Service Employees
International Union's 1199 chapter (300,000 members); Transport Workers Union Local 100 (64,000 members); and more. AFL-CIO
president Richard Trumka, who personally endorsed the protests, told In These Times that he's meeting with his union's
executive board on Wednesday to discuss a union-wide endorsement. The executive board for the Communications Workers of
America (700,000 members) declared in its own statement that Occupy Wall Street "is an appropriate expression of anger for
all Americans, but especially for those who have been left behind by Wall Street."
支援する組合は、ニューヨーク連合教組（NYSUT)、SEIU（サービス業国際労組）、輸送業労組などであり、AFL-CIO代表の Richard
Trumkaは運動を個人的に支持するという。アメリカ通信業組合の幹部会は独自にこの運動支持のメッセージを出している。
It has gone beyond just rhetoric. The unions are sending food, bussing members down to the protests, and even educating and
strategizing with various participants of Occupy Wall Street
組合の支援というのは口先だけのものではなく、食料を送り、バスでメンバーを送迎し、更にメンバーの教育や戦略化を行う。
Between visiting the protests and witnessing plenty of enthusiasm among union members, TWU's Marvin Holland is optimistic
about the future of Occupy Wall Street, for now. "There is definitely something building with so many different groups,"
he says. "Whatever it is, I know that it's just the beginning."
