The nearly 800 Food Service and Building Service Workers, members of SEIU Local 73, at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign are planning to go on strike.
These essential workers are the heart of the University. They cook the food for the students living in the dorms. They clean the buildings on campus. They deserve to be paid a living wage for their work and to be treated with dignity.
Write a letter to Chancellor Robert J. Jones at UIUC, urging him to pay his workers a living wage:
Community members have set up this fund for SEIU 73 workers as they go on strike. Can you help support these workers as they stand up for dignity and fairness on the job?
