The Kentucky State AFL-CIO asks members and local community partners to participate in the national 8/11 Fast on Tuesday.
Participants can RSVP through this link: https://actionnetwork.org/forms/fast-for-action?source=direct_link&referrer=group-unemployed-action.
"This a place where a lot of folks come to voice their frustration with the system, but maybe don't see the full big picture at who really is in charge of providing support to unemployed people aka the federal government rather than state agencies," said Alejandro Guerrero, a fast organizer.
