John,
This May Day, let’s celebrate workers across the country, their struggles, and their progress by pledging that California's next U.S. Senator will be a staunch ally of the labor movement.
Our state has been at the center of the labor fight for decades. Just like the SEIU members I joined on the picket line last month, who drive our kids to school, feed them lunch, and clean their classrooms, California workers have always fought to set the standard for a middle-class life in this country.
I’ve committed my entire career to standing up for California’s workers and working families. This commitment to workers is why I proudly kicked off this campaign alongside the brains and brawn behind the Hollywood Magic at the IATSE union hall in Burbank.
It’s why I’ve picked up statewide endorsements from the CA electrical workers (the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers) and the CA transit and allied workers (the Amalgamated Transit Union), as well as California’s IATSE council. Not to mention another dozen local unions.
Too often, working families and underserved communities are left behind, leaving only large corporations and the wealthy to benefit from our country’s economy. We must say no more to this broken system and commit to supporting workers.
Whether you're a school teacher, a barista, a construction worker, or an IT technician, you have the right to form a union and collectively bargain for your wages and benefits.
As California's next Senator, I'll fight to protect that right and enshrine it further by passing the Protecting the Right to Organize Act, which helps unionizing workers, providing them protections when bargaining for better wages, benefits, and safer workplaces.
Will you stand with workers across California and this country today by adding your name alongside mine, calling on Congress to pass the Protecting the Right to Organize Act?
Thank you for stepping up today, and happy May Day!
