Statement on Occupy Wall Street 

by NYS AFL-CIO President Denis Hughes & NYC CLC President Vincent Alvarez

The New York State AFL-CIO and New York City Central Labor Council unequivocally support the rights of the participants of Occupy Wall Street to express their point of view. As such, the labor movement strongly opposes any attempt to silence their voice, and by extension, the voice of 99% of working Americans dissatisfied with our current economic system and the unlevel playing field everyday working Americans are confronted with. 

Occupy Wall Street participants should be allowed to continue to peacefully protest the issues, in particular, speaking out against an inequitable economic system tilted in favor of this country's top 1 % of wage earners.  The labor movement in this city and state will continue to support their cause until the long term economic needs and concerns of working people are addressed.
