Fair treatment

Monday, Sept 10th, Local 1045 organized a march to coincide with the city councilor's emeting. We didn't have anything scheduled on the agenda during the meeting, rather, it was just a march to let the city know that we, the firemans local, are tired of being stepped on and lied to. There was an amzing turnout of support, especially considering the rain. There was a head count of 110 marchers, ranging from L1045 members, retirees, members of the L3195 (Officers union), as well as brother from the Bedford, Manchester, & Nashua Depts. There were also some representatives from the teachers union, electrical union, and the PFFNH Pipes and Drums.
Some of us were able to go into the chambers during the meeting, and we can testify that our presence outside was by no means overlooked. If it is true that there are strength in numbers, we must look mighty strong and united now.
