Let’s make change! On Tuesday August 7th, join us restaurant workers from around California in Sacramento, for a push to end forced arbitration as a condition of employment!
Forced arbitration means that any complaint against an employer must be resolved through a private mediator (often hired by the employer) rather than through the public court system system! Employees must waive their right to sue, to participate in a class action lawsuit, or to appeal! Workers should not have to waive their rights to find work!
On August 7th, we will tell our stories to our representatives and demand that they protect our rights, by saying no to forced arbitration agreements!
If you are able to join us and/or have a story to share, please contact us! We will be picking up folks from 6AM-7AM from BART stations around Oakland (Ashby, Coliseum, Downtown, and MacArthur). Please send us a private message if interested and bring your friends! You can also caravan with us in your own vehicle and meet us at the State Capitol at 9AM.
This will be an all-day event; food, transportation, childcare and a great community will all be provided.
