Just think—NYC could lead the way in recognizing the dignity of fast food workers by passing a law that says you can’t be fired without a good reason!

The New York City Council is considering "just cause" legislation to enshrine fairness and dignity for fast food workers. It could become a model for other cities and industries.

Check out this op-Ed in the NY Daily News that makes clear what we already know— NYC fast food workers need a law that ensures they can’t be fired without a good reason!

Imagine showing up to work and being told by your supervisor you no longer have a job because you stopped to drink water or because you called in sick to take care of your child. Now imagine your rent is due the next week and you no longer have a paycheck.

🚨Big news! McDonald’s says it will stop lobbying against raising the minimum raise! What a moment for all our sisters and brothers in this movement to see a major player recognizing our right to support our families.

McDonald's' decision to quit the National Restaurant Association's campaign against raising the minimum wage represents a serious blow to the trade group.

This👏is👏why👏we👏need👏the👏just👏cause👏law.

For the past four years, I have been a full-time student by day and a fast food worker by night, working as a crew trainer or often at the drive-thru window at the McDonald’s at 840 Atlantic Ave. in Brooklyn.

Proud to be part of the coalition fighting for a NYC law that would ensure fast food workers can only be fired for valid reasons!

New York bill that could apply in other states would give workers stronger protections if they’ve been fired unjustly

‪🚨Un nuevo proyecto de ley en NYC evitaría los despidos sin razón de trabajadores de comida rápida. Fast Food Justice es parte de una coalición de organizaciones apoyando esta legislación.

Se quieren evitar los despidos arbitrarios y la reducción de horas de trabajo

🚨Check it out! NYC Council members Brad Lander and Adrienne Adams to introduce legislation tomorrow that says NYC fast food workers can’t be fired without a valid reason. 👏👏👏

A bill to be introduced to the New York City Council would require employers to provide a justifiable cause to fire fast food workers.
