Protest the anti-worker Janus decision

The Professional Staff Congress-City University of New York called a “day-of” demonstration in New York’s Foley Square to protest the anti-worker Janus decision by the U.S. Supreme Court on June 27. The PSC-CUNY, supported by many other public service and private unions in NYC, including the Hotel Trades Council (also pictured here), expressed their commitment to public sector unionism by picketing outside the federal and state courts. Teachers and school workers, on their first day of vacation, brought family members in support.The 500-strong picket included private sector unions, among them Communications Workers Local 1180, Laborers and other building trade workers fresh from a #CountMeIn march; Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union; Taxi Workers Alliance; Union of Clerical, Administrative and Technical Staff; and graduate workers from private universities represented by the United Auto Workers, plus writers, actors and stagehands from the Broadway theater industry.
