Thousands are expected to join a march for new contracts in Los Angeles on April 15. Jesse Russell reports:

Starting on April 15 and stretching over the three preceding days, organized labor and their supporters will march from Hollywood to the Port of Los Angeles – 28-miles – to highlight the contract negotiations about to start for more than 350,000 Los Angeles County workers. The march will reflect workers from the entertainment industry to teachers to the public sector – all in an attempt to show massive labor solidarity. More than 300 local unions are expected to be involved.
