Illinois voters ensured that all workers in their state will have the right to organize by voting to pass the Workers Rights amendment yesterday!

Today we joined Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights for their GOTV rally at federal Plaza.

Your vote on workers rights is important!

The Workers’ Rights Amendment aims to expand the Illinois Bill of Rights to give employees the fundamental right to organize and bargain collectively to promote their economic welfare and safety at work. If approved by the voters, it will guarantee Illinois workers the right to come together and negotiate with their employers to improve working conditions.
