Over a 100 folks from acros the country are travelling to DC on 9/27, including foreclosed homeowners, to demand that Freddie and Fannie quit evicting people from their homes.

This is a huge step in the fight to get the banks to quit destorying our communites.

Today, we need folks to chip to help get breakfast for them in the morning.

Tomorrow, I'll post about to participate in a pretty awesome event where eating pizza is the Direct Action.

You can call locally owned bakery La Caprice DC (202) 290-3109 and order a jug of coffe and a dozen pastries (or how many you can afford) and let them know that Occupy Our Homes DC will pick them up at 8pm on Thursday Sept. 27th.

This just in:

"More than 170 of us at a Bain Capital-owned Sensata plant in Freeport, IL, are facing the outsourcing of our jobs to China.

Bain created Sensata Technologies in 2006, buying our plant that develops, manufactures, and sells sensors and controls for major auto manufacturers like Ford and General Motors.

Over the last few months, we’ve tried to contact Mitt Romney—who still profits from Sensata via his blind trust portfolio—with a 35,000-signature strong petition, frequent protests outside the plant, and trips to nearby campaign offices.

In July, the Freeport City Council unanimously passed a resolution calling on Romney to come meet with us and use his influence at Bain to intervene on our behalf. When Romney didn’t respond, we went directly to him at the RNC Convention in Tampa.

Now we’re coming together with our fellow workers and Freeport community members. Starting tomorrow, September 12th, we’re camping out at the county fairgrounds in front of the Sensata plant until Mitt Romney comes to Freeport and stands with us to save our jobs.

You can follow the progress of the tent city at: http://bainport.com"

You can stand with the Sensata workers fighting outsourcing by sending them a pizza.

Call Logan's Bar & Grill at (815) 232-4592 Tell them it's for the Senstata workers camping out and they'll make sure the food gets to them.

Sending lots of love and solidarity to the workers in the trenches all over the country today.

You can tweet this to help get more support:

Tonight is a critical volunteering shift. It's the last few hours to reach voters while they are home before the polls open tomorrow morning. The volunteers out knocking doors, making phone calls, enter data, and running the staging locations need to be well feed and supported.

A simple act of donating a pizza or a salad shows the the solidarity of people from the across the country who standing with them as they stand up to Scott Walker and the Koch Brothers.

I'm reposting the info from yesterday-- please please donate a pizza pie tonight.

Pizza! Donate! Recall Walker! Go Fight Win!
