Friends: Earlier this week, Peter went to the McKenzie-Willamette Medical Center in Springfield to show his support for hospital workers on the first day of their strike. At a time in which essential workers are overworked, their jobs are being outsourced to an out of state staffing agency!CEOs putting profit margins over people’s health is unconscionable, which is why Peter walked the picket line in solidarity with hospital staff as they demand livable wages, affordable healthcare, and adequate workplace protections from COVID-19.
You can always count on Peter to stand side-by-side with workers who are demanding better treatment and better wages. The only way we’re going to rebuild the middle class is if we strengthen and expand organized labor, and hold these greedy corporations accountable.
