Check out SEIU's action alert and blogpost on Stella D'oro here. In the meanwhile, here is some of what they have to say:
"Yesterday, Lloyd Blankfein [CEO of Goldman Sachs] said he's committed to job creation. He should tell that to the 150 Stella D'Oro workers in New York who lost their jobs when Goldman Sachs took over their company. The workers, whose tax dollars bailed out Goldman, tried to meet with Lloyd Blankfein in September. They wanted to tell him the harm he was doing to their struggling community.
He didn't listen. Maybe we can get his attention. Will you call Goldman Sachs and ask them to use the tax dollars we gave them to help the workers at Stella D'Oro?
The Stella D'Oro story is all too familiar. It's just one of many family-owned businesses sucked up by Goldman Sachs, loaded down with massive debt, and forced to either declare bankruptcy or lay off their workers to survive.
We gave Goldman Sachs $63 billion of our tax dollars so they could clean up the economic mess they created. But they've only made it worse. Tell Lloyd Blankfein to stop with the PR stunts and start helping Stella D'Oro workers and all the small businesses his company has hurt."
