Mon. Aug. 27, 6pm
Rally to demand backwages for Woodfin Hotel Workers

Join the ANSWER Coalition at this important action.

Workers at the Woodfin Suites Hotel have been struggling for a year to win their rights under Emeryville's living wage law, while hotel managers have stalled endlessly in turning over wage records to the city. In June, the City of Emeryville finally ordered the hotel to pay workers about $250,000 in back wages. But instead of paying up, the hotel got a pricey anti-union law firm to appeal the order. On August 27th, the city of Emeryville will hold a hearing to consider the Woodfin's appeal and make a decision about how much the hotel must pay its workers, and when.

Rally at 6pm to support the Woodfin Hotel Workers and then show your support in the hearing at 7pm .
