  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

  • Dear Members of the Public Health Committee
    Dear Members of the Public Health Committee, Typically during testimony, I would explain how this bill impacts my family specifically, but today I want to talk about the numbers. The whole impetus of this bill which aims to remove the religious exemption right now is not because of an emergency or public health crisis, but because of the possibility of one in the future. The Department of Public Health released vaccination data that shows an increase in the use of the religious exemption from one year to the next and “dangerous pockets” of low vaccination rates. I’ve poured over the numbers like children’s lives depend on it, because, frankly it does. The data I’ve used is from the Department of Public Health immunization surveys and the Department of Education’s student enrollment numbers for the 2018-2019 school year. But unfortunately there are many flaws in the data: • Using the supplied data and getting less than one child with an RE or percentages of a child. • Enrollment was less than 30 students and data was still supplied. • Schools with only Pre-Kindergarten students are used in the averages. I’m going to focus on the public school numbers since they are available from the State of CT EdSight database. For public schools, the increase from last school year to the previous year is an average of one religious exemption per public school. ONE. In the 2018-2019 school year there were 530,612 students in public K-12. With an overall exemption rate of 1.8%, that accounts for 9,551 RE.
