Celebrating SB 1030 passing out of Labor Committee 4-0 with Lola Smallwood-Cuevas!

#4: Our network grew the spaces where people can connect and build power together:

▪️ engaging workers and tenants through outreach and education programs,
▪️ bringing folks together through tenant and neighborhood unions, community schools, and dedicated movement spaces.

Our spring 23 R2W cohort faced some unique challenges, but, their determination landed them stable employment with the City of LA!
This holiday season, we invite you to donate to the liberation of Black workers: socalblackworkersunited.org/give2023/

Our fight isn’t over! ✊🏽
We continue to organize and fight with Domestic Workers to ensure domestic workers can work with SAFETY, DIGNITY, and RESPECT!

With #SB497 (Smallwood-Cuevas) now signed into law by Gavin Newsom, workers will be empowered to report workplace violations without fear of retaliation. Workers are routinely harassed, bullied, or fired for reporting unequal pay, health and safety violations, or wage theft.

Thank you Gavin Newsom for signing #SB497 and our Champion Lola Smallwood-Cuevas for carrying the Equal Pay & Anti-Retaliation Act into law🎉🎉🙌🏾🙌🏿🙌🏻🙌This bill will give California workers a path to justice they deserve. We were proud to Co-Sponsor this bill with National Employment Law Project and…

ERA’s Jessica Ramey Stender spoke at UCLA’s #LatinaEqualPayDay conference yesterday, including advocating for CA #SB497 , which would enable more workers to report unequal pay and other workplace rights violations by strengthening retaliation protections when they speak out.

The health and safety of our domestic workers have a huge impact on their children and California’s future!
California Governor #YeaOnSB686 !

Together with our partners of the California Coalition for Worker Power we urge legislators to take action against retaliation by supporting #SB497 . CA labor laws are weakened by employers unlimited ability to fire, harass and bully workers who report labor violations.

CA residents! Workers have every right to file a complaint of wage theft or unequal pay, but many are afraid of retaliation. Let's better protect workers asserting their rights with #SB497 !
