Each year the DC Council holds oversight hearings to hear from the public about how city agencies are performing. This Friday there will be hearings on both the Dept. of Employment Services - responsible for protecting workers - and the Office of the State Superintendent of Education - responsible for early childhood education. Join the Union de Trabajadores in the 5th floor hearing room to demand that the city do more to protect workers and recover stolen wages OR join Empower DC on the 4th floor to speak out against proposed cuts to child care subsidies for working parents. | ||
