SIGN NOW: Demand Congress #ProtectAllWorkers in the next coronavirus relief package. >> [link removed]
"Essential workers" are dying, John.
We're putting our lives on the line to go to work for minimum wage because we don't have a choice. I don't have the option of not feeding my son or paying my rent.
But when I show up for work, I'm not guaranteed a mask to protect myself and our customers. I CAN'T catch coronavirus and bring it home to my son.
Workers across the country have gone on strike because this is life or death.
Congress is deciding right now what the next coronavirus relief bill will look like. Will it be a corporate bailout that exploits those of us who are keeping this country running? Or will it center people like you and me?
Tell Congress: Until you #ProtectAllWorkers, your work is NOT DONE. If you feel like you're taking the appropriate measures to keep us safe, then come on down and work with us. Come on down and see exactly what we have to go through. >> [link removed]
Corporations like McDonald's are prioritizing profit and relying on OUR labor to make THEIR money with hardly any protections at all.
We NEED masks, gloves, and free testing. We NEED money for rent, food, and healthcare. We NEED paid sick leave NOW.
Last time, Congress made sure to bail out the banks, but “essential workers” like us were largely left behind. One $1,200 check is nowhere near enough. We need a long-term solution to this crisis, and that's only going to come if we DEMAND our lawmakers give us one.
This country MUST #ProtectAllWorkers -- NOW. >> [link removed]
