Description

This session will focus on worker rights advocacy and litigation in the aftermath of a worksite immigration raid, including screening for labor violations, intake strategies, collaborating with state and federal labor agencies, and deciding when to litigate. Panelists will discuss their experiences utilizing worker rights strategies in the raids response context, such as filing administrative claims, invoking the DHS-DOL deconfliction MOU, leveraging collective bargaining agreements, and filing employment litigation. Collectively, these strategies can support a powerful, worker-centric collaboration between workers, organizers, lawyers, and unions seeking justice for affected workers. This webinar will have interpretation between English and Spanish. Speakers: • Julia Solórzano, Centro de los Derechos del Migrante (formerly with the Southern Poverty Law Center) • Sarai King, Service Employees International Union (formerly with the United Food and Commercial Workers Union) • Audrey Richardson, Greater Boston Legal Services • Spring Miller, Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition
