Thousands
of LA workers and their families marched through Downtown L.A. as part of a
national day of action to raise the minimum wage to $15.
L.A. Women have taken over City Hall’s doorstep in a 15-day fast demanding a $15 minimum wage in Los Angeles! Today is day 12 of women going without food and standing strong outside of City Hall’s doorstep. The brave L.A. women include mothers, fast food workers, attorneys, labor leaders, clergy and advocates.
It happened today. Thousands of fast food workers went on strike in hundreds of cities. And they weren’t in the streets alone. SEIU 721 members were there in full force.
On April 15, we called on the Board of Supervisors to strengthen public services and end poverty wages. The wages working families are being paid are completely out of balance with what people need to survive.
As you know, we are doing everything to extend the mediation period in hopes that City Officials will finally step up and prioritize the services LA communities depend on; however, to date LA City officials have failed to present acceptable proposals that could lead to final agreement.
