Free Training: Confronting Corporate Power!

Fight for a Fair Economy

CONFRONTING CORPORATE POWER

Five Facts About New York State:
1. New York State isn't broke.
2. New York State gives out corporate handouts that add up to $8 billion a year.
3. These same corporate handouts are supposed to be creating quality jobs in our communities. Guess what? THEY AREN'T
4. It's time to end the free ride for corporations and change our broken economic development system.
5. TOGETHER: we can get New York back on the right track!

FIGHT FOR A FAIR ECONOMY will be holding a training, that will teach individuals and organizations how to help develop, implement and change policies and practices that will result in an economy that will work for everyone! Working together we can bring an end to corporate giveaways and start investing our money in the things that really matter - our schools, healthcare, infrastructure, quality of life services and good jobs.

Who should come? Activists, leaders, and rand-and-file members of labor, community, and faith organizations who want to build their skills and strengthen the growing movement to confront corporate power and build an economy that works for everyone.
