Each year on May 1, International Workers Day, we demonstrate our power as workers and
immigrants by marching shoulder to shoulder and demanding justice in our workplaces and communities. Amid the pandemic, we cannot be united in person, but we can still make our voices heard.
In March, Congress passed three bills intended to address the national health emergency and mitigate its economic damage. However, these federal relief packages excluded millions of working families who help to build, serve and feed our nation.
Allowing these gaps in coverage to remain is wrong, and it elevates the risk in all our communities and workplaces. None of us will be safe until all of us are safe.
Tell your representative and senators today that they must protect ALL workers, regardless of immigration status.
Members of Congress are discussing what should be included in the next coronavirus relief bill now, and we can’t leave any families behind this time.
To ensure that we successfully contain the coronavirus outbreak and achieve our economic essentials, it is vital that everyone in our country can access testing, treatment, public health information, and relief benefits.
Our lawmakers need to
hear from us now that the next COVID-19 package must protect all workers, regardless of immigration status.
This pandemic has shown us just how interconnected we are. We’re all in this together, and we need our government’s responses to reflect that.
Please email your Members of Congress and tell them that ALL WORKERS deserve to be protected.
Happy International Workers Day - thank you for the work that you do!
