December ralleys, NYC, workers rights and protect rent stabilization!

-Sunday, December 7th - Children's Vigil
Join JFREJ, children of domestic workers, and children taken care of by domestic workers on the steps of City Hall to show how much our families care about the Domestic Workers' Bill of Rights. During the holidays, and during this time of financial crisis, let's show legislators that our whole families care about the caretakers in our lives. Let's show them that we need a bill that protects the women whose work makes all other work possible.

Tuesday December 9th - City-Wide Rally to protect rent-stabilized housing
Join JFREJ and the Housing Here and Now Coalition to speak up for low-income housing during this time of financial crisis. When the rent in a vacant apartment can be raised to $2,000 a month, landlords can raise the rent to anything they want. This is known as "vacancy decontrol." The state legislature can end this, saving 100,000 regulated apartments already on the verge. Hold politicians accountable: end vacancy decontrol.
