March for $15 and Union Rights joined by Senator Bernie Sanders
Public · Hosted by Fight for $15 and 5 others

Sunday, June 9, 2019 at 12:30 PM – 1:30 PM CDT
Cedar Rapids City Hall
101 1st St SE, Cedar Rapids, Iowa 52401

McDonald's workers recently took to the streets across the country calling on the corporation to address the epidemic of violence and sexual harassment in their stores; adding to their demand for a $15 wage and union rights. They were joined on strike lines and through online support by 2/3 of Democratic presidential candidates joining the call for McDonald's to do the right thing and meet employees' demands for union rights, higher wages and safe workplaces.

Presidential candidates will be gathering for the Iowa Democratic Hall of Fame dinner in Cedar Rapids, June 9. Let the know $15 and union rights are priorities for voters in the state of Iowa. Senator Bernie Sanders will join workers and advocates on the march to the event.

And let's keep McDonald's on the run! Stand with workers June 9 at 12:30pm to keep the pressure on McDonald's to deliver more than PR platitudes. Let them know that dignity, living wages, safety and our union rights are not up for debate. Show them Iowa will stand together to win:

✅$15 Base Wage
✅An End to Sexual Harassment
✅Workplaces Free of Violence
✅Union Rights for All
