International Women’s Day is a global day celebrating the economic, political, and social achievements of women past, present, and future. Domestic work, which has traditionally been devalued and invisibilized as women’s labor, forms the bedrock of our society-domestic workers do the work that makes all other work possible. Domestic workers are primarily immigrant women and are among the most isolated and vulnerable workforce in the state. They are excluded from many basic labor protections that other workers take for granted. Join us to celebrate the launch of a Bill of Rights campaign that will ensure dignity and respect for those who care for our most precious resources- our homes, friends, and families.
