We must empower workers & unions to fight for better wages & benefits by providing universal comprehensive healthcare for ALL, guaranteed by law & not tied to employment. No one should have to bargain for healthcare & care shouldn’t be taken away if you lose or change your job, strike, or don’t work enough hours.

We demonstrated in solidarity this with & workers everywhere, including tipped restaurant workers & workers with disabilities to demand a & universal healthcare for everyone - without exception! It’s time for New York to empower & protect workers by passing this essential legislation!





We rallied at Trump Tower in NYC to call out Trump & the National Restaurant Association for suppressing worker wages while the Trump administration cuts Medicaid & SNAP that workers rely on, and to call out Gov Hochul & our state legislature’s failure to act.

Greedy billionaires & corporations exploit workers & patients for profit.
Which side are you on?
