Thank you to Councilmember Lisa Herbold for coming to visit our CARE Community Crisis Responders. We were able to show her our new office space and the responder vehicles. Councilmember Herbold sat down with our team, and we discussed our team’s progress.

We’re at a packed city hall tonight advocating for funding for enforcement of #PayUp policies that pay/protect gig workers. Workers fought for these policies. Now, we need to fund enforcement to make those wins real.

Thank you to the councilmembers who have put working families over corporate interests by voting down amendments that would’ve gutted funding for enforcement of our rights! 💪🏽 Lisa Herbold Andrew J. Lewis Teresa Mosqueda Tammy J. Morales Kshama Sawant Councilmember Dan Strauss
