John,

A paycheck or safety. Far too many workers were forced to weigh those options as they faced surging water, mudslides, and power outages. Each day that passes since Hurricane Helene made landfall, we hear testimony of companies failing their workers. But clocking in under hazardous conditions is not a new phenomenon. Read worker testimonies and find ways to give to communities devastated by Hurricane Helene here.

In Solidarity,

Michaela Winter
