In Step. In Solidarity.
We truly appreciate the massive crowd of MACRC members and their families who assembled this weekend for the Chicago Labor Day Parade in Pullman. We were blessed with beautiful weather as we joined our fellow brothers and sisters in the labor movement to celebrate working families and union solidarity.
