Dear Farmworker Supporters,

We need your help! A very bad bill for farmworkers will be heard on Tuesday, Jan 20th at 8:00 am in the House Committee on Public Safety.
We will send out additional info and talking points soon and materials you can use to testify against this bill.
FOR NOW USE THESE COMMENTS: This bill will silence farmworkers and advocates from documenting abuse and violations of law, both of the workers and animals. This has serious ramifications for the ability to protect workers and livestock. This is a right-wing agenda pushed by the national conservative group ALEC and has been introduced in other states as a way to gag worker's and those speaking up for workplace and animal rights. Rep. Schmick is a member of ALEC and it is clear to see he is NOT SUPPORTING THE RIGHTS OF FARM WORKERS!
