Protest Wednesday, March 12th at 11AM in front of the Governor's Manhattan office at 919 Third Avenue.
Governor Hochul is currently defying a NY Supreme Court ruling by refusing to have her Department of Labor reopen home care workers' wage theft cases as the court had ordered last fall. To make matters worse, she just broke NY Public Health to award one of the worst home care agencies, Chinese-American Planning Council (which still does 24 hour shifts and owes workers $90 million in unpaid wages) with a $7 billion contract to take over an even bigger chunk of the industry (NYC's CDPAP program).
In short, Governor Hochul is encouraging more 24 hour shifts and wage theft across NY by not only allowing the worst actors to get away with it, but rewarding them too!
We hope you will join us this Wednesday to demand Governor Hochul: enforce the labor law and cut the contract to CPC! You can RSVP at this link
