 We are so close to ensuring protections for striking workers. A bill is heading to Gov. Lamont’s desk that would allow striking worker to access unemployment insurance after striking for two weeks – a vital protection in the face of the assault on workers’ right coming out of Washington. But instead, Gov. Lamont has threatened to veto this pro-worker legislation! We’re calling on all union members and allies to join us for a picket outside the Governor’s Mansion to urge him to sign this bill into law!Picket at Governor’s Mansion in Support of UI for Striking Workers! 📅 Monday, June 16 🕠 6:00 PM 📍 Governor’s Mansion, 990 Prospect Ave, Hartford With just the stroke of a pen, Gov.
