California Labor Policy Strategies

In this strategy discussion with the California Labor Federation, Legislative Advocate Ivan Fernández will discuss the ways in which California labor has worked on policy with strategic campaigns in the past. What policies have worked and which haven’t? What policy goals are realistic given the current political climate? And how can researchers help improve chances of policy coming to life? Prepare to discuss all of these topics in the session.
