I forgot about this work—now more relevant than ever. For abt 10 yrs these audits counted cases and documented causes of anti-Asian violence. In the last year alone, the no. of cases nearly equaled the total cases committed over that entire decade (approx 3,800). #StopAAPIHate

If you are working fewer hours because your children’s school is closed and you need to be there for them, you may apply for unemployment insurance. There is no medical certification needed. https://t.co/uqyVPMOMEK

🥳 We’ve got good news in the fight for abortion rights!

Today, Congress introduces the Women's Health Protection Act to protect abortion rights nationwide. No one should be denied an abortion just because of where they live in this country.

When a janitor cleaning 24-Hour Fitness gyms for five years is suddenly an "independent contractor" instead of an employee:

-Lower wages
-No overtime pay
-If she gets hurt at work, her employer would no longer be accountable

oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere.” - Elie Wiesel
