几个小时以后，也就是明日凌晨，美国西海岸的码头工人将与卡车司机、退伍军人一起在西海岸主要港口发动占领行动。以下是他们之前张贴的计划。观察者网全文翻译。
西港口国际仓码工人联合会的工人与卡车司机、当地工会领袖、退伍军人和占领组织者解释了应奥克兰占领大会的号召，即将于12月12日在西海岸进行的主要港口封锁计划。
社区纠察队和大规模群众封锁港口行动正在圣迭戈、洛杉矶、奥克兰、波特兰、塔科马、西雅图、温哥华和休斯敦进行着。12月，占领安克雷奇、丹佛和华尔街运动正将目标锁定高盛和沃尔玛。许多地方正在筹划相应的声援行动，甚至远及日本。
“奥克兰占领组织号召这次大规模封锁是对那些‘1%’的回应，他们不仅中伤占领运动，还一直攻击工人和穷人。” Boots Riley，奥克兰占领运动的组织者之一说。“我们在西海岸的行动是呼应洛杉矶和朗维尤市的港口工人的斗争，并旨在反对华尔街。
朗维尤的港口工人们目前陷入了与跨国粮食出口公司EGT的苦战。而洛杉矶的卡车司机们则联合起来对抗高盛旗下的社会保障总署。
港口社区纠察队正由占领西海岸封堵委员会组织，普通的成员一直在积极参与各个级别的组织工作。
“西港口国际仓码工人联合会的工人在跟我聊天时说过，已经没有别的办法了，他们打算跨越社区警戒线”，西港口国际仓码工人联合会在当地的10个会员之一的Anthony Lavierge说道，“我一直在这个港口工作，跟我聊过的90%的卡车司机都很热情。
封锁港口的组织者们将下周一作为占领运动的关键一刻。在最近的几周，占领运动的激进分子已经远远扩大了营地，他们现在将目标锁定在大型金融机构，为房屋抵押赎回权的丧失而战斗，回收公共空间并且向占有社会财富的1%的人群进军。
12月12日的港口封锁运动具有历史意义。在这个前所未有的行动中，我们将向1%反击，他们赚取大量的利润牺牲其余的99%。我们是全球性的运动的一部分，寻求改变我们的生活。在关闭港口的运动中，我们团结友爱，不仅与工会会员一起战斗，而且与89%的工人阶级一起战斗，他们失业、退休，没有工会代表他们。”一位占领奥克兰的组织者，Mike King说。“在下周一，港口工人和所有的工人都将和这些99%站在一起。
斯科特•奥尔森，伊拉克战争的老兵，11月25在警察对“占领奥克兰运动”的攻击中被重伤，他发表一个声明，宣称“12月12日，我将再一次高高站起，我希望和我们港口工人们站在一起。”他继续说，“团结，我们就会更强大。正如你们所说，在你们的工会里，对一个人的伤害就是对所有人的伤害。任何想告诉你其他建议的人都是居心叵测的家伙。”
在奥克兰，港口的游行将会在上午5：30从西奥克兰巴特开始。下午三点，队伍在百老汇进行第14次集会，紧接着四点在港口会有一次激烈的游行。五点在港口游行的队伍将从西奥克兰巴特离开。（观察者网翻译）
英文全文：
Oakland， California – Today， rank-and-file workers from the ILWU and Teamsters， local union leaders， veterans， and occupy organizers explained plans for the upcoming West Coast Port Shut Down on December 12 called for by the Occupy Oakland General Assembly.
Community pickets and mass mobilizations to blockade the ports are being organized by Occupy movements in San Diego， LA， Oakland， Portland， Tacoma， Seattle， Vancouver， and Houston. Occupy Anchorage， Occupy Denver， and Occupy Wall Street are targeting Goldman Sachs and Walmart on the 12th. Solidarity actions are being planned as far away as in Japan.
"Occupy Oakland called for this massive coordinated blockade as a way to strike back at the 1% after their attacks on the Occupy movement and their continued assault on working and poor people” said Boots Riley an organizer with Occupy Oakland. ”Our action is aimed directly at Wall Street on the Waterfront and is in solidarity with the struggles of port workers in LA and Longview， WA. ”
Longeshoreman in Longview are currently in a bitter fight with the multinational grain exporter EGT， and port truckers in LA are fighting to unionize against Goldman Sachs-owned SSA.??
While the community pickets of the port are being organized by the Occupy Oakland Port Shutdown Committee， rank-and-file unionists have been actively involved in every level of the organizing.
“The rank and file of the ILWU I’ve talked to say there is no way they are going to cross a community picket line.” said Anthony Lavierge， a member of ILWU Local 10. “When I’m working on the port， 90% of the truckers I talk to are enthusiastic.”
Organizers of the port blockade see the actions planned for next Monday as an important next step for Occupy. In recent weeks， Occupy activists across the country have expanded far beyond encampments and are now targeting large financial institutions， fighting foreclosures， reclaiming public space， and marching on valuable sources of profit for the 1%.
“The December 12th port shutdown will be historic. In an unprecedented action we will bring the fight back to the 1% where they make a great deal of profit at the expense of the rest of 99%. We are part of a global movement seeking to take our lives back. In shutting down the ports we act in solidarity， not only with trade unionists under attack， but with the 89% of the working class with no trade union to represent them - the unemployed， the underemployed， the retiree.” said Mike King， an organizer with Occupy Oakland. “This coming Monday， port workers and all workers will stand with the 99%”.
Scott Olsen， the Iraq War veteran critically injured by police during a November 25 attack on Occupy Oakland， issued a statement declaring “I plan on standing tall again on December 12， and I look forward to standing with our longshoremen.” He went on to say， “United we are stronger. As you say in your union， an injury to one is an injury to all. The only ones who will tell you otherwise are those that want to continue profiting off your backs.”
In Oakland， marches to the port will begin at 5.30am at West Oakland BART. At 3pm， there will be a rally 14th and Broadway， followed by a 4pm sharp march to the port. A 5pm march to the port will leave from West Oakland BART.

中广网北京12月12日消息（记者王宗英）据中国之声《全国新闻联播》报道，再过几个小时，美国加州的占领运动组织者将在美国西部沿海全部11个港口举行大罢工。
再过几个小时，也就是美国西部时间12号早上5点半，美国占领运动的组织者将在美国西部洛杉矶、长滩、奥克兰等港口进行大罢工，组织者还在社交网络呼吁参加罢工和占领运动的人们记得带好防护和抵御物品，在保护好自己免受警棍和子弹袭击的同时还能有效冲破警察的警戒线。
不过，也有工会组织对这次罢工号召并不积极，质疑让繁忙港口彻底瘫痪的做法究竟是打击1%富人，还是在港口讨生活的99%的劳工阶层。一些在港口工作的工人、卡车司机对罢工感到不解，抱怨是浪费时间和金钱。目前，由于这11个港口由于都是美国西部最繁忙的港口，因此也引发外界担忧集装箱装运可能会遭到重大影响，甚至瘫痪。
