After attending a town hall meeting on the right to form unions, more than 250 union members and community activists protested cable giant Comcast’s anti-union actions Dec. 5 by paying their bills in person and pasting bright red stickers on them with the phrase, “Were watching workers’ rights.” They also rallied outside Healthy Start, a government-funded agency that assists low-income mothers, where a worker was fired for trying to form a union with the United Steelworkers.
