Group calls on Coloradans to occupy the infrastructure

Citing persistent double-digit unemployment in the construction sector, a coalition of labor groups called Colorado Wants to Work is joining in a "national day of action" today to focus attention on crumbling infrastructure around the country. The group is meeting with supporters under the 6th Avenue Bridge in Denver, which is one of 145 bridges in the Denver metro area "red tagged" as structurally deficient by Transportation for America.
