Support for Worker Power is Growing
The COVID-19 pandemic has painfully highlighted how small of a voice many American workers have in their workplaces. Essential employees, such as grocery store workers and garbage collectors have been forced to do their jobs without necessary safety measures that they’ve demanded. Gig and domestic workers have had to choose between going to work, at the risk of their own and others’ health, or be forced to go without any income at all. The increased spotlight on theses issues has sparked inspiration for new fights for worker power.
