- Women at Work, Women at Risk: Sexual harassment and assault in Will County warehouses

5/12/2012 By Democratic Party of Wheatland Township

  Women at Work, Women at Risk: Sexual harassment and assault in Will County warehouses “We donʼt go to work to be touched, to be talked down to, to be told what our bodies look like ... thatʼs something you have to deal with every day at work.” Women who work in warehouses across Will County are being paid less than their male counterparts, are subject to verbal abuse and physical assault, and when they complain are either ignored or met with retaliation from their supervisors. The police take no interest in these cases and there are no legally-binding grievance procedures workers can use to protect their rights. Come and hear Warehouse Workers for Justice talk about working conditions for women and how we can help them to marshall the legal resources needed to right these wrongs. Free and Open to the Public Tuesday May 15th, 2012, 7:00pm Lombard Mennonite Church 528 East Madison Street Lombard, IL 60148 WSFPC is an initiative of faith-based peacemakers from across Chicago’s western suburbs. WSFPC includes clergy, congregations, church staff, lay persons, faith-based peace organizations, peace and justice committees, religious communities, and more, spanning from Oak Park to Elgin to Joliet. WSFPC is committed to sustaining work of peace through activities such as prayer vigils, public witness, peace education, lobbying/legislative initiatives, and interfaith dialogue.

 

- Race, religion collide in presidential campaign -

5/6/2012 By Democratic Party of Wheatland Township

How unthinkable it was, not so long ago, that a presidential election would pit a candidate fathered by an African against another condemned as un-Christian. And yet, here it is: Barack Obama vs. Mitt Romney, an African-American and a white Mormon, representatives of two groups and that have endured oppression to carve out a place in the United States. How much progress has America made against bigotry? By November, we should have some idea.

 

- Obama to showcase technology at kickoff rallies Saturday -

5/5/2012 By Democratic Party of Wheatland Township

President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama will kick off the general election season Saturday with large rallies in two critical battlegrounds, Ohio and Virginia, intended to showcase the technological firepower of his re-election campaign. As he has been doing at fundraisers and other public appearances in recent weeks, Obama is expected to draw a sharp contrast between his record and what he predicts would happen if his Republican rival, Mitt Romney, won the White House in November. The news, however, may not be in what Obama says, but in how the rallies look and how his team uses technology and social media to engage supporters and gather information about them to serve the campaign through the fall.

 

- COD presents faculty with ‘final’ contract offer -

5/5/2012 By Democratic Party of Wheatland Township

As part of continuing contract negotiations, College of DuPage presented full-time faculty members with what it called its “best and final” offer on Friday. The contract will be up for approval by the COD Board of Trustees at its Thursday meeting. “We have negotiated in good faith over the last 14 months. This agreement is fair and competitive for our faculty, and is fiscally responsible for College of DuPage ,” COD President Robert L. Breuder said. “We have significantly modified our position on key issues since the start of these negotiations to ensure a compromise that best serves this institution and the citizens of this district.”

 

- ComEd working on new SmartGrid efforts -

5/5/2012 By Democratic Party of Wheatland Township

If all goes as planned, ComEd customers should see their bills shrinking and their lights staying on more often over the next decade. It’s all part of a plan the company has to upgrade its system to a Smart Grid, a modernized power grid that ComEd believes will significantly reduce outages, help customers manage their power use and save them money. Calls to report outages would be a thing of the past once the Smart Grid is in place, the company says. The modern power grid could report problems itself, alert customers’ cell phones when power is restored and “heal itself” when there is a problem on a line.
