A rally in support of the super shuttle van drivers at BWI Thurgood Marshall airport was held near the facility, in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, on Saturday, at noon, Dec. 21st. According to a press release from the “Workers Assembly,” the drivers are “low wage workers...making minimum wages after working 18 and even 24 hours a day.” The press release continued that the company involved, Veolia, a large $billion international corporation, (which operates at other airports on the East coast), is not treating the employees “fairly.” The press release also charged that some workers have been “fired” for speaking out about their “working conditions.” To learn more about why the activists & the workers staged a “Caravan for Justice,” at the site of the rally, and through BWI, go to: https://www.facebook.com/events/1443253899230742/?notif_t=plan_user_joined Speaking on camera: Sean Collins, Sharon Black, Amy Millard and Delegate Jeff Waldstreicher.
