FAIRFIELD COUNTY, Conn. The Occupy Wall Street movement will celebrate May Day Tuesday with what it calls the first-ever general nationwide strike.
"The Occupy Movement has called for 'A Day Without the 99%' on May 1st, 2012," the movement says on its website. "For the first time, workers, students, immigrants, and the unemployed from over 125 U.S. cities will stand together for economic justice."
