Day 2 on the CalPortland Unfair Labor Practice strike line: The theme of the day was support! Support from Teamsters at different companies coming by to spend time with the picketers, support from families, children, spouses, and retirees, and support from other organizations that had no obligation whatsoever to be out there with us, but showed up anyway. Holding the line strong is a team effort, and we should all be proud of the teamwork we saw today!
