Occupy Wall Street West Bechtel Teach In: Andrew Lichterman, Western States Legal Foundation

On Jan 20, as part of the shut down of Wall Street West, members of Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW), Global Exchange, Fellowship of Reconciliation, New Priorities Campaign and others were present outside the Bechtel headquarters all day, protesting Bechtel's practice of greed and destruction. Bechtel spends millions on campaign contributions and lobbyists who secure war contracts, undermining democratic process, while directing billions of public dollars to build nuclear weapons and make its CEO a billionaire.

Andrew Lichterman, Western States Legal Foundation, speaks.

Here's an introduction to the day's actions: http://youtu.be/CCH_SFxIS_Q
