The right to assemble and to peacefully protest is fundamental to who we are as a country and to the power of the labor movement.
“Like many of my fellow immigrants, I had a union card before I had a green card...As a leader of UNITE HERE, I know our first response in this moment must be to continue to grow the union and fight for our members."
Enrique Fernández, UNITE HERE General VP for Immigration, Civil Rights & Diversity on protecting immigrant workers in the current environment:

We've been waiting for too long for a fair deal.
We've authorized a strike at the Omni New Haven Hotel at Yale.
We've given our deadline.

We work. Who profits? Workers at @OmniNewHaven and @HyattRegency Greenwich have authorized a strike and are willing to go on the picket line. We need a fair contract and we need it now!

Today 300 graduate workers visited Chancellor Gabel’s office to tell her that a strong majority of us have signed union cards. Tomorrow we'll file with the state labor board for our union vote! (Photo credit: @cineformosa)
