Join us for our Mayday phone bank where we will be honoring the struggle of all workers who have fought for better wages and working conditions. Mayday originated in 1886 when Chicago workers went on strike for an eight hour day. Even though more than a century has passed since 1886, working class people are still struggling for our voices to be heard and needs to be met. This is why we must elect people like Marcela who will prioritize our interests in Albany!
COVID-19 has laid bare the devastating impacts decades of the NY state legislature and governor disinvesting from working class New Yorkers
In the middle of a pandemic, when we need support for working class New Yorkers such as rent suspension, rent debt forgiveness, Medicare for All and more: we are left with no support. Hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers will be laid off with no way to pay rent and sick with no healthcare.
We need champions for the working class like Marcela in the state assembly. Join us and phone bank so we can elect Marcela together! Join us so that next time there is a crisis, our government fights for us, not the 1%.
No experience necessary, training will be provided at the start of the call.
