RE: 20-CV-03611
Dear Honorable John G. Koeltl,
I am writing on behalf of current and former employees of the Chinese-American Planning Council. I am with a workers center which has been helping these w orkers seek justice for the years they worked grueling 24-hour workdays and had their rights violated by not being paid for 11 hours of their shift, even when they were unable to sleep for an uninterrupted 5 hours.
Lai Yee Chan and Mei Kum Chu, on behalf of some of their co-workers, have filed charges against their union, 1199SEIU, at the National Labor Relations Board (29-CB-293554 and 29-CB-293755). They have also requested injunctive relief pursuant to Section 10j of the National Labor Relations Act as they will suffer irreparable harm if the arbitration award is carried out. We therefore ask that you do not confirm the arbitrator's award until the NLRB makes its final decision.
If you have any questions or concerns about our request, please contact me by phone or email.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely, Sarah Ahn
