Who‘s showing up to ’occupy’ Wall Street today?

Not surprisingly, many of the usual suspects:

AFL-CIO (AFSCME)

United NY

Strong Economy for All Coalition

Working Families Party

TWU Local 100

SEIU 1199

CWA 1109

RWDSU

Communications Workers of America

CWA Local 1180

United Auto Workers

United Federation of Teachers

Professional Staff Congress - CUNY

National Nurses United

Writers Guild East

Next stop: Obama campaign headquarters?

And why are these groups heading down to Wall Street?

At 4:30 in the afternoon the 99% will march in solidarity with #occupywallstreet from Foley Square to the Financial District, where their pensions have disappeared to, where their health has disappeared to. Together we will protest this great injustice.
