Labor Law AMA

Wednesday, July 28th @ 7-8:30p ET

Join us on Zoom at https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83070032650

Or on the phone at (929) 205-6099 with Meeting ID 830 7003 2650

Join three labor lawyers who have been fighting for worker rights for decades. This is an open AMA where we have the chance to ask questions about how labor law affects tech, our working conditions, and collective action. Everything from the Nation Labor Relations Act to No Tech for ICE is on the table.

Please fill out this form in advance of the event to ask the lawyers questions. There will also be time during the event to ask questions.

📖 Upcoming Book Club

Jump on Zoom at 7p ET on Monday, August 3rd to discuss Alex Vitale's The End of Policing.

Ideally we'll read all or as much as possible, but please feel free to join regardless of how much you get through. We'll be discussing the book, what it means to defund the police, and what we can do as tech workers.

🥧 We're having a picnic!

Finally, vote for a day to host our NYC TWC physically-distanced picnic!

It will be BYOB and BYOFood for safety purposes, but we'll still be able to see each other and enjoy the (hopefully) good weather.

We'll likely meet in Prospect Park, unless others want to suggest otherwise. Please fill out the Doodle to vote on a date/time.

The TWC Code of Conduct is in effect for all TWC NYC meetings.
