#FUNDEXCLUDEDWORKERS
A coalition of bout 200 organizations that advocate for the rights of excluded workers in New York State. It is this coalition of workers and allies that can be thanked in large part for the passage of the Excluded Workers Fund after NYC and Westchester group members staged a 23-day hunger strike in early April of 2021.
