Kelly Dugan: Making a difference
...
So that's where Kelly Casey Dugan comes in. For the last two and a half months, she has been working seven days a week, typically 12-14 hours a day, getting a day off every once in a blue moon, up in Vancouver, Canada. For those of you who don't know Kelly, she worked as a Community Organizer for UNITE HERE Local 2 since the lock-out in 2004 and organized many of us to do delegations to hotels, and even get arrested with Hotel Workers.She also has served as the Vice-President of the Harvey Milk LGBT Democratic Club.

In early May, Kelly traveled to a city she had never been to, lived out of a college dorm, and has been working her butt off ever since.

So if you get a chance, give Kelly some props.She and the other organizers who she works with deserve much gratitude.Our economy on the West Coast is connected.What happens there, matters here too.It is insanely difficult, stressful, and challenging work.So join with me in giving a shout out to Kelly for all the work she is doing up in Vancouver on behalf of all of us, for the movement, for our future.You may think this is cheesy, but it isn't just her, and it isn't just in Vancouver.
