Economic Justice Committee
We are homeless because our income is too low to afford housing. Welfare is a joke. Sometimes, we are left with no jobs at all! They call us lazy – yet we are among the hardest working people!
Our Canners' Committee, led by workers who collect and redeem recyclables for the deposit, won significant victories that impact every canner in New York City. This campaign organized canners to build power as a workforce, to assure that the legal rights of canners are enforced and expanded, to improve working conditions and to increase respect for the environmental contributions of our work. At this time, our Canners Committee does not meet regularly, but if you want any further information about our Canners work, please call us at 646-314-6423 - ask for Jean Rice. ![]() ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Somos desamparados porque nuestro ingreso es demasiado bajo para pagar la renta. Asistencia publica es una broma. A veces, no nos quedan ni trabajos para ganarse dinero. Nos llaman araganes - !pero somos entre l@s obrer@s que hacen los trabajos mas duros! Para contactarnos, pueda llamar 646-314-6423(pregunte por Jean) ( categories: Economic Justice/Canners )
