Fighting for justice is about building power, not asking nicely for fair treatment. On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we honor the organizer and man who called on us all to build power through a multiracial working class to win the world we deserve.

Restaurant workers organized for and won a new way to enforce safe workplaces. By expanding King Co Public Health's ability to help restaurants ensure safe, healthy workplaces for workers, we can finally treat workers' rights like the public health issue they are.

Restaurants already post food safety grades. Soon, if they don’t fix labor violations, they’ll have to post a second sign calling that out. king5.com/article/news/l…

If the Court rules in workers' favor, we will finally strike down this 64-year-old exemption that has carved this majority Black, majority immigrant, majority women industry out of fundamental labor standards for decades. Stay tuned. 👀

Workers, repped by our legal clinic Fair Work Center, argued before the state Supreme Court last week that exempting live-in care workers from the right to minimum wage is unconstitutional. (Also gross/wrong/immoral but that's not exactly a legal premise) thestranger.com/news/2025/09/1…

Restaurant workers in King County today won the vote for safer restaurants! Starting next year, restaurants that violate workers' rights like paid sick leave or breaks could face extra health inspections. No more hiding unsafe, unhealthy working conditions behind closed doors!

We'd love to live in a world where no employer is a gross creepy weirdo, but we don't live in that world yet - so we're proud to work w @AGOWA in supporting workers holding a 💩 boss accountable. Our legal clinic Fair Work Center is on the case, & workers are leading the fight!

The King County Board of Health is hearing testimony on a proposal to expand the Public Health Department’s ability to enforce restaurant workers’ rights in our workplaces. Because when workers handling food can stay home & stay healthy, everyone wins. 2/

Check it out! Our comms director @hmshowell & @ufcw3000 leader Joe Mizrahi shared why we were all in on Rep. @OsmanSalahuddin's law to make our Sick & Safe time safety net more inclusive of more workers. All workers deserve to care for ourselves and our families!

Today is the day we're telling the State Supreme Court that live-in care givers are done being left out! We've been excluded from fundamental workplace protections that other workers have had for decades. That's not just morally wrong, it should be ruled UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
