Freeport’s Sensata Technologies workers to join Bain Worker Bus Tour Sept. 22:
(RockRiverTimes): FREEPORT, Ill. - Saturday, Sept. 22, the Bain Worker Bus Tour will make its first stop in Freeport, Ill., to visit Bainport and pick up Sensata workers before making its way across the country.
In recent months, workers at Freeport’s Sensata Technologies plant - who are currently facing the outsourcing of their jobs to China by Bain - have called on former Bain CEO and Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney to intervene on their behalf.
As Romney continues to ignore Sensata workers’ plea for help, the workers will join fellow Bain workers in their effort to educate swing voters about Romney’s economic vision for the country, and take the campaign to save their jobs straight to Romney’s doorstep in Boston.
The tour, which will kick off with a rally in St. Louis Friday, will also make stops in Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Florida and at the presidential debate in Hempstead, NY. The trip will culminate in a day of action in Boston, where both Romney’s campaign and Bain Capital have their headquarters.
