Republic strikers to meet again tomorrow.
Does anyone know how to donate food and water to the people trying to keep their jobs at Republic Windows & Doors?

Is there anyone living in or near Chicago who can help take up a collection to send over there?

Anyone know how best this can be accomplished?

Here is DUer Tavener's original post.
