CA contract protest comes to DC bookstore tonight

3/27/2019

A California labor struggle comes to the Politics & Prose bookstore tonight when members of AFSCME Local 3299 and their local supporters will protest at an appearance by Janet Napolitano, former DHS secretary and current Chancellor of the University of California system. Local 3299 represents 25,000 UC clerical and service workers, who have been in contract talks for two years and recently staged a 1-day strike, their third strike in two years. Wages and pension are major sticking points, as well as contract language around being a sanctuary campus and retaining Black workers. “We need to be there to support our sisters and brothers,” said Robert Hollingsworth, president of AFSCME Local 2776, which represents workers at the DC Office of Tax & Revenue.
