To highlight the economic difficulties many Ohioans face and help draw attention to the failed Republican policies that have resulted in more than 180,000 Ohio jobs lost, Ohio AFL-CIO President Joe Rugola is engaged in a walk through regions of Ohio hardest hit by the economic policies of the last eight years. The walking tour began on October 5th and is hitting dozens of Ohio cities. Along the way, Rugola is stopping at job sites that have been closed down or severely downsized. Rugola also meets with workers, emphasizing that we cannot afford another four more years of Bush/McCain policies.

“The Bush administration has wrecked our economy and destroyed the lives of hundreds of thousands of Ohio’s working families, and John McCain is committed to policies that promise more devastation for our communities and our people,” said Rugola in a press release about the tour. “The challenge now is to reverse these trends and this election presents Ohioans with a chance to right the ship by electing a president who will put working families and the middle class first - Barack Obama."

Stops planned for tomorrow (10/21) in Southeast Ohio are detailed after the break.

Start: 2:45 pm

Peter Yarrow of the legendary folk music trio Peter, Paul & Mary comes to the Beachland Ballroom (15711 Waterloo, Cleveland; 216-383-1124), Sunday, October 26, at 7:00 p.m., to perform in a free concert.

The concert, called "The Audacity of Votes: A Concert for Change" is a get-out-the-vote event that also features popular local artists Carlos Jones (reggae), the Prayer Warriors (gospel), Kristine Jackson (blues), Chuck Fink (folk), and Noah Budin (original folk-pop).

The concert is free, with an optional suggested $5 donation to help cover costs.

* * *

Peter Yarrow is a member of the Peter, Paul & Mary, the most successful folk music group in history. At 70, Yarrow is not only one of the best-known proponents of the late-1950s/early '60s American folk music revival movement, but he is still extremely active, as a performer and social activist.

Peter, Paul and Mary sang at the March on Washington in 1963 and marched with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in the historic Selma-to-Montgomery march in 1965. Yarrow helped organize and run the early Newport Folk Festivals, which launched the careers of many young folk singers, such as Bob Dylan and Joan Baez.

Yarrow has written several well-known songs, including "Puff, the Magic Dragon," a children's song recorded by Peter, Paul & Mary, and "Torn Between Two Lovers," a number-1hit for Mary McGregor. This past spring, "Peter, Bethany & Rufus: Spirit of Woodstock" appeared on national public television. It featured 17 songs, performed in concert with his daughter, Bethany.

From Callahan:

The Great Bank Bailout was first proposed by the Secretary of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve Chairman on September 18, less than 40 days ago. Just think of what's happened since then. $700 billion in "capital infusions" approved for the financial industry. Wachovia acquired by Wells Fargo. WaMu acquired by JP Morgan Chase. National City acquired by PNC, using $5.5 billion in bailout funds. And talk -- endless talk -- about whether and how to bail out homeowners facing default and foreclosure.

Now think about what hasn't changed: Since that day in September, despite all the talk, 1,271 new foreclosure cases have been filed in Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Court. And 596 more foreclosed Cuyahoga County properties have been sold at Sheriff's sale.

This must stop. Now. But it won't, unless we make it stop.

That's why you need to be at the Justice Center this Thursday at 4 pm to help the Foreclosure Action Coalition tell our elected county judges: Enough is enough. It's time to Freeze The Foreclosures!
