Proud to be Irish, Proud to be Union

Look for me in the Saint Patrick’s Day parade in Jim Thorpe on Sunday.  I’ll be marching with the Carbon County Labor Chapter contingent, along with the Patchtown Players.  I’ll be carrying a sign that says “Proud to be Irish, Proud to be Union.”  

If you are wondering if I really am Irish, remember that on St. Paddy’s Day, everyone is Irish.  And if you are wondering if I am really union, let me list them--Bethlehem Municipal Workers, Teamsters, UFCW, and California Faculty Association, affiliated with the AFL-CIO.  

Solidarity forever. and the union makes us strong!
