Demand Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel Rehire Fired ATU 241 Executive Board Member Erek Slater
Update from today (02/18/16)
George Orwell could not have made this up…
On February 11th, much loved Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s appointed bureaucrats at the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) illegally fired me from my 10-year job as a city bus driver. They fired me because I was doing my job as an elected union steward and executive board member of the Amalgamated Transit Union, Local 241 protecting my co-workers and holding management accountable.
