Support the Walkout Against McCain's Slime Calls

40 Americall call center workers in Hobart, IN walked off the job on Monday, October 27 rather than read a script attacking Obama for supposedly “coddling criminals” and voting against “protecting children from danger.”

For this act of conscience they lost their wages for the day. Let’s stand with them, and against slimy campaigning.

$9 will cover an hours wages — an hour they won’t be making slimy attack calls against Obama. $2,880 will cover the full day’s wages for all the workers who walked out. Nobody’s credit card will be charged till we reach our total goal.

Please give $9 (or more) to Support the Walk Out against Slime Calls. If we receive more than $2,880, we will make the funds available as a kind of “virtual strike fund” for any other walk outs that occur before Nov 4. You can donate here or by clicking on the "badge" in the upper right of my blog.
