Capital &amp; Labor International Coalition, a newly-minted organization, thinks it has all the answers to the brand&#8217;s woes, and has scheduled a summit to help save <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/make\/hummer\/\">Hummer<\/a> here in the states on April 11.<\/p>\n<p>This assemblage could be more than just a few fans with posters. CLIC has invited everyone from shareholders to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/make\/hummer\/\">Hummer&#8217;s<\/a> CEO and United Auto Workers leaders. Thane Ritchie, chairman of the organization, said CLIC has taken a good hard look at the General Motors\/Hummer issue and there may be another option out there other than just turning off the lights for good. <\/p>\n<p>Members of the group have even invited Senator Rolland Burris (D-Illinois) to help out as well. Burris will be acting as a liaison between the coalition and the federal government, especially when it comes to getting any aid for the brand. In the meantime, the Save <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/make\/hummer\/\">Hummer<\/a> in America rally will be held next week in Chicago.
