2/10: Domestic Workers United Albany Lobby Day (Everyone Welcomed!) 
 
Great News and Head Count for February 10

Dear Friends, 

It's  that time again! We're trying to get a head count for our big day on 
February  10. Please send an email to domesticworkersunited at gmail.com, and 
confirm your  numbers or your presence  for February 10. This week, we will be 
setting up  the teams for legislative visits, so it would be great to have early  
confirmations. 

And, we just got word that the Domestic Workers Bill of  Rights is on the 
agenda for the Labor Committee this Wednesday, February 4!  Thanks to all of your 
work, it has the most co-sponsors of all the bills on the  agenda. Another 
huge step forward for our Bill of Rights. If the bill is passed  at the Labor 
Committee meeting, it will have made it through a major hurdle, and  now it will 
be up to Speaker Silver to bring the Bill to the floor for a vote in  the 
Assembly. 

Our first day of "Canvassing for Workers Rights" in the  Lower East Side took 
place yesterday, with over 100 constituent letters  supporting domestic 
workers rights and all workers' rights to organize collected  in Silver's district. 
Thanks to all of you who participated! If you're  interested in participating 
in the next round, contact Joyce at  joycedwu at gmail.com.  

In the Senate, we have several good prospects  for Senate sponsors. On 
February 10, one of them will step forward as our new  champion in the Senate. Be 
there, to help push our new champion to move  quickly.  Now is the time to get 
on the bus, we need your voice. RSVP  today. 

And, if you're interested in attending a training to prepare for  Albany Day, 
there's one scheduled for Wednesday evening at 7:00 pm at NYU School  of Law, 
Furman Hall, 245 Sullivan Street 6th Fl, between Washington Square South  and 
West 3rd Street. RSVP for that as well at  domesticworkersunited at gmail.com.
