most MA buses scheduled to go to Washington not able to go WTF??!!

[HomerRamone]

I had been planning to go to the One Nation Working Together rally from Boston but could not. (I hope to attend the Stewart/Colbert rally on the 30th instead.) I just received this email--does anybody have any further knowledge?:

What happened on Friday Night

Due to circumstances beyond the control of the sponsoring organizations (1199/SEIU, NAACP, Jobs With Justice and others) most of the 72 buses scheduled to go to Washington were not able to go. The bus company canceled buses just as we were scheduled to leave. We have had buses break down, not show etc, but never have we seen this happened to us on such a large scale. Still, more than 1,500 people from Massachusetts were able to attend the historic rally of which we will have more news soon. We apologize for any inconvenience and will be pursuing action against the bus company.

Jobs with Justice will begin the process of refunds on Monday, and you should get a credit to your card for what you paid.

Again, we want you to know that we are horrified that this happened and hope to make it right.

In Solidarity,

Jennifer Doe, Organizer
