Our hearts are with their loved ones, our close partner, CASA de Maryland — who lost two beloved members in Miguel and Maynor — and the city of Baltimore.
This tragedy is a stark reminder of the dangers immigrant and essential workers regularly face on the job. It also underscores the absolute urgency of our collective fight to advance all workers' rights and ensure that our systems prioritize human dignity over labor.
Right now, the families of the victims and the survivors of the bridge collapse are in need of our support.
We urge you to contribute to the Key Bridge Community Fund. Your donation will go directly to the families affected by this disaster.
