For helping found and lead the Food Justice League at the University of Florida, to demand more equitable food
service in their next dining contract, including farm and food worker rights, protections, and fair wages.

and a warehouse worker bill banning performance rates that force workers into unsafe or uncompensated work.

Alianza Agrícola, Laundry Workers Center, RWDSU,
Rural & Migrant Ministry, Workers' Center of CNY,
and the Worker Justice Center of NY
For winning and implementing health & safety protections so that all workers in New York have the right to

Public Justice

RCWA's challenge against Smithfield, and challenging Arkansas' Ag-Gag law.

We will also be joined by musical guest Sonny Singh, and our special guest speaker Rodolfo Mendez Jimenez, a worker at Pindar Vineyars who can tell us about the campaign for the first-ever farmworker union in New York State!
