On Feb. 26, the SEIU organized rallies across the country to show that America needs union jobs. The date coincided with the the day the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments for Janus v. AFSCME, a court case funded by corporations and anti-labor groups to divide working people, suppress wages and take away hard-earned benefits.

In Fresno, the rally took place at noon at the Fresno Courthouse. CTA member and Madera Unified Teachers Association President David Holder was among the speakers.
