TAKE ACTION RECOGNIZES CTUL WITH THE 2011 PROGRESSIVE LEADERSHIP AWARD

CTUL members with Governor Mark Dayton and State Senator Patricia Torres Ray

Last Friday, November 18, CTUL received the Progressive Leadership Award at Take Action‘s 2011 Annual Leadership Awards Celebration.  We are grateful to Take Action for the recognition of the risks that hundreds of retail cleaning workers have taken over the past two years organizing for workplace justice.
