Occupy Movement to Target West Coast Ports - Port Workers Not On Board

An offshoot of the "Occupy" movement plans an attempt to shut down west coasts port facilities from San Diego to Alaska today, while the Union representing some 15,000 dock workers fails to endorse the protest.

The attached article from CNN, explains the International Longshore and Warehouse Worker's decision not sanction any shutdown.

San Diego port officials also called for no disruption of port operations, stating that the individuals who would be most affected by a work stoppage are among the 99% that the movement claims to champion.
