9/14 at 11 a.m. in Sacramento: Show up to urge lawmakers to vote YES to $20 minimum wage for fast-food workers!
Come out to support AB 1228!
Exciting news! Our advocacy and activism have paid off:
Assemblymember Chris Holden (D-Pasadena) introduced Assembly Bill
1228 on Monday. AB 1228 will raise the minimum wage for most
fast-food workers in the state to $20 an hour by next April.
Crucially, the fast-food giants will pull their referendum to
repeal last year’s successful FAST Recovery Act off next
November’s ballot.
What’s the catch? The bill needs to be passed by the time the
Assembly goes into recess at the end of this week. That’s
where YOU come in.
Please join SEIU members and fast-food workers Thursday,
September 14, at 11 a.m. at the SEIU State Council office (1029 K
St, Sacramento, CA 95814). We’ll be heading to
the state capitol together to urge lawmakers to vote YES on AB
1228 to raise the wage and improve working conditions for
fast-food workers.
