1,700 character and parade workers spend long days in difficult conditions, get repeated injuries, and face attacks by guests.

Now they'll work together for better conditions with Actors' Equity.

Just called a cherished friend, UFT retiree, Unity Caucus stalwart. Eyesight is shot, tho she's smart as ever. The aide sorting her mail tossed her ballot away. 'I need that!' she said. Livid about UFT health care sell-out, she's voting Retiree Advocate/UFT .
