Thanks for working on this!!! > > 32BJ SEIU is the largest union of property service workers in the U.S. with more than 145,000 members. We are concentrated in the Northeast – in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Jersey, New York, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Northern Virginia, and Washington, D.C. – but our reach extends to southern Florida and as far west as Montana. > > We work primarily as cleaners, property maintenance workers, doormen, security officers, window cleaners, building engineers, and school and food service workers. But our ranks include railroad and factory workers as well. > > We are an affiliate of SEIU, the Service Employees International Union, which has 2.1 million members dedicated to raising industry standards, making life better for working families and our communities, and building a fair economy. > > > More than 70,000 office cleaners up and down the East Coast are bargaining for a contract this year. Our fight is for an economy that works for everyone. > > On September 30th, at 12:00pm more than 2,500 32BJ SEIU members from Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York City, D.C., Maryland and Virginia will converge on Philadelphia to send employers a message: “We’re ready to fight for what we deserve!” While we rally in the City of Brotherly Love, thousands of SEIU members nationwide will join us in a symbolic actions. On the streets and at work, the majority of commercial building service workers in the country will be taking action on September 30. Don’t miss history: be there! > > Four years ago the economy was still in recovery, rents were down and massive layoffs for public workers set the stage for difficult contract negotiations. Since our last contract, the economy has turned around—but not for everyone. Over the past four years the richest 1% saw their incomes rise 31% while everyone else got no raise at all. This contract is our chance to right this wrong so that everyone can benefit from economic prosperity. > > The commercial real estate industry has fully recovered from the recession and is booming. Building owners can afford to provide the men and women who keep their buildings clean, safe and running smoothly a family-sustaining wage with decent benefits and adequate hours. > > > The promise of America is for everyone, including the 70,000 men and women who clean office buildings. A strong middle class is not just the result of a strong economy, it is the way to build a strong economy. > > > Andi Perez > PA/DE Political Director > 32BJ SEIU > 1515 Market Street, Suite 1000 > Philadelphia, PA 19102 > 215-226-3600 x 1337 > =2
