============================

Did you know that Latina domestic workers — especially those who are undocumented or primarily Spanish-speaking — are some of the most vulnerable workers in our country? For many, the constant threat of deportation forces them into silence, afraid to speak up against unfair treatment.

According to our most recent NDWA Domestic Workers Economic Situation Report [[link removed]], which surveyed thousands of Spanish-speaking domestic workers across the country:

* 18% of workers were without work in August.

* 52% of those working earned less than $15 an hour.

* 68% couldn’t find enough work to meet their basic needs.

* 83% were food insecure, while 55% struggled with housing insecurity.

Despite their vital role, too many Latina domestic workers continue to face some of the toughest working conditions with little to no protections.

But, there is hope, and we are building it together.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

Take Action: At NDWA, we are fighting for a National Domestic Workers Bill of Rights that would include domestic workers in common workplace protections like paid overtime for live-in workers, paid sick days, and freedom from sexual harassment . AND, it would provide stronger workplace protections and enforcement mechanisms. Add your name to call on Congress to support the National Domestic Workers Bill of Rights today! [[link removed]]

The majority of domestic workers sit at the center of some of our nation’s most decisive issues because of who they are and what they do: they are women – mostly women of color, immigrants, mothers, and low-wage workers. They are impacted by almost every policy affecting the future of our economy, democracy and country.

Domestic workers can lead us toward a new, inclusive vision for the future for all of us -- and your grassroots support is the fuel that can get us there.
