Issue Position: Labor

Issue Position

Jessica Ramos was born organizing and will die organizing. She spent a near decade working in the labor movement, and will stand up for labor rights in Albany. Jessica believes we must go beyond the minimum wage, and hold companies accountable that make billions of dollars while paying minimum wage with no benefits. She is tired of seeing our public dollars subsidize big corporations' payroll--and she will fight to make sure every workers' right to a voice on the job is protected, including farm workers. And she will work to protect New York's workers from the Janus decision and from Work for Less laws.

"I've spent my entire career fighting for working people, and I'm not done yet. I believe every individual should have access to a good, union job so they can provide shelter, food, and clothing for themselves and their families."
