Workers continue to strike and picket across Los Angeles. Can you show up for them?

  • Support L.A. Grand Workers Friday
  • March and Rally in Santa Monica Saturday
  • Adopt a Picket LAX/Century Blvd or Universal City

Once again, hundreds of cooks, room attendants, dishwashers, servers, bellmen, and front desk agents walked off the job in a fourth wave of strikes. Belen, a 6-year veteran housekeeper in downtown LA recently shared, “The last raise we got was 45 cents. After deductions, it added just $14.40 to our paychecks. It’s just not enough. No more cents for us. We need dollars.”

HELP BUY LUNCH FOR WORKERS AT THE L.A. GRAND

Yesterday, workers walked off the job at the L.A. Grand Hotel to protest unfair labor practices by the hotel. They remain on strike through tomorrow and we’d like you to support them by showing up on the picket line OR helping buy them lunch on Friday. (You make the donation. We’ll make the order.)

TAKE TO THE STREETS IN SANTA MONICA ON SATURDAY, 8/5/23 at 10:30 a.m.

Join clergy and community members as they walk with workers on Saturday, August 5th. We’ll meet at the Viceroy (on Ocean and Pico) just before 10:30 a.m.  We’ll march to the Fairmont (Ocean and Wilshire) and have a rally there.

Email [email protected] for more information. We hope to see you there!
