West Coast Port Shutdown. Occupy San Diego contributes to a coordinated Occupy Movement campaign on December 12, 2011. There were effectively full or partial shutdowns of ports in San Diego, Long Beach, Port Hueneme, Oakland, Portland, Longview, and Seattle. Support actions and protests took place in Vancouver, Anchorage, Coos Bay, Tacoma, Bellingham, Salt Lake City, Denver, Alburquerque, and Houston. As reported on http://westcoastportshutdown.org: The "'Wall Street on the Waterfront' campaign targeted the ports as sites of the corporate and financial power of the 1%, and were particularly directed at the investment banking giant Goldman Sachs and grain exporter EGT, which has been in conflict with the ILWU/Longshore workers for refusing to hire union dockworker."
