Our digital and in-person picket lines are on their third day! Today’s in-person picketing will be at CUMC (W 168th and Fort Washington) outside of the Hammer Health Sciences Building.
As a reminder, in order to qualify for the strike benefits, you need to perform at least 10 hours a week of picketing duty. If you need an exemption, you can check off that box in the sign-up form. Our digital and in-person picket lines are open to everyone. Bring friends and let’s keep showing in large numbers!
