9to5 Milwaukee Day of Action

When: Thursday, August 26, 2010 - 11:00am - 12:00pm CDT
Location: 

Milwaukee City Hall Rotunda 
200 E. Wells Street 

The 9to5 National Day of Action – Healthy Workplaces: Paid Sick Days Now! is designed to call the nation’s attention to the need for proposed federal legislation, the Healthy Families Act (H.R. 2460, S. 1152), which would guarantee paid sick days for every American worker. The day will also build and heighten support for paid sick days legislative campaigns underway in states and cities around the nation.

 In Milwaukee, we will be hosting a rally outside of Milwaukee City Hall, followed by a press conference in the City Hall Rotunda. We will be updating the public on the status of the city’s 2008 Paid Sick Days Referendum and will show our support for the Healthy Families Act. Wisconsin Paid Sick Days Coalition and 9 to 5 members will take this opportunity to Speak out for Paid Sick Days NOW! 

All are welcome! Come join us in the struggle! Because no one should have to choose between the family they love and the job they need! Contact Lashawndra [at] 9to5 [dot] org to RSVP or for more information.
