Chicago Workers Collaborative receives funds from CCHD
The Chicago Workers Collaborative receives a grant from CCHD. The group organizes low-wage temporary laborers to protect their rights, fighting anti-worker and anti-immigrant activities of employers while strengthening protections for temporary agency workers. CWC has raised labor standards in Illinois through grassroots campaigns that led to the passage of seven new laws, including the toughest temporary-labor and wage-theft laws in the country.
