CHICAGO, June 13, 2011 — Seeking to strengthen America’s beleaguered unions, SEIU staff members across the country this week will mark the 21st Annual Justice for Janitors Day by protesting an economy consider unbalanced, unjust, and unfair to union bosses and their cronies. 
This week SEIU staff and several dozen misled members will be compelled to participate in protests in 15 U.S. cities that call for more government bailouts and protectionism for unions. – In Boston on Wednesday, SEIU staff will protest outside the offices of corporate giant GE, where they are attempting to force unionization on janitors at GE’s Lynn facilities. – In Chicago on Tuesday, people in purple tee shirts and bizarre costumes will join other unidentified protestors at a meeting of CFOs of many major corporations to urge card check, higher taxes with less accountability, and an end to corporate profit making.
– In Philadelphia on Wednesday, hundreds of SEIU staff and misled members will march to the Comcast building in support of card check, raising the national debt, and greater dependence on government waste and bureaucracy. With 2.2 million members, SEIU is the nation’s fastest-growing labor union and forcibly collects dues from 225,000 janitors in North America, much of it wasted on dumb public stunts like these.
