Article From La Prensa: SINDICATO: Realizarán elecciones en Pomona College
On April 22, representatives from labor, student, faculty, faith-based, and community-based organizations gathered in a rally while dozens of others sang and chanted in the dining halls at Pomona College in Claremont — in support of the Pomona College cafeteria workers, who for years have been struggling to organize a union. In the past, the college has created various obstacles to the workers’ unionization effort. In late 2011, the administration ordered a review of workers’ immigration documents, which resulted in the firing of 17 workers. The administration also instituted a gag rule they instituted a gag rule banning students and workers from talking in the dining halls. One year after firing 17 workers, many of them union activists, a new group of workers came forward demanding a union at the college — and now it is going to happen with a vote on Tuesday, April 30th. Olga Rojas, from La Prensa, has written an article on the actions that took place on April 22 to support the dining hall workers. The link is below:
Pomona Economic Opportunity Center
Providing employment and services for day laborers
Every morning at dawn, you will find day laborers looking for work at various street corners throughout the Inland Valley. For the past fifteen years, the Pomona Economic Opportunity Center (PEOC) has operated the Pomona Day Labor Center, the only worker center of its kind in our region. The PEOC not only provides a safe place for workers and their potential employers to meet up and negotiate a day’s work, it also organizes the day laborers so that they are active leaders in their own communities who take on issues important to day laborers and all immigrant workers.
