As workers continue to win legislative victories, fast-food corporations attempt to subvert democracy and workers’ rights
After a multiyear fight to win Assembly Bill 257 - the Fast Food Accountability and Standards (FAST) Recovery Act, fast-food corporations, such as McDonald’s, Burger King, Jack in the Box, and more, are working hard to undermine this victory.
