Good Jobs Press Conference

Houston continues to pressure Mayor Turner to pass our Financial Policies Ordinance for family sustaining wages, benefits, second chance jobs and affordable housing.

We’re releasing a report card for the city of Houston in terms of its economic development. Can people survive on $7.25/hour? Do the formerly incarcerated deserve to have a job? Do people deserve dignity and respect on the job?

Our press conference will take place in front of one of Houston’s newest developments: a luxury mall (location TBA) with designer brands and high end apartments. We need Good Jobs instead!

Event Partners: Service Employees International Union of Texas (SEIU TX), Texas American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (Texas AFL-CIO), Texas Organizing Project (TOP), Worker’s Defense Project
