Respect My Union Rights
How can the labor movement respond to the many challenges facing it, including the latest attack with the Janus Supreme Court case? How does labor operate in a Right to Work environment?
Respect My Pay
Who can afford rent on $12 an hour? What if you're not getting paid for the hours you work? Everyone deserves a living wage. Raising the minimum wage and stopping wage theft are fundamental in our fight to increase wages for everyone. This bilingual workshop will explore how we can organize for a living wage on the North Shore and the nuts & bolts of campaign planning.
