Breaking news: California cleaners have won a new contract with higher wages and better rights. The win came after the cleaners held a vibrant and powerful protest in the 24 hours before their collective contract ended on Friday at midnight. They also authorized further strikes and arrests if their demands were not met.

The new contract delivers important on the job rights like stronger protections for immigrant workers, protections against sexual harassment, arbitration in cases of wage theft and improved health benefits for cleaners and their families. The contract also delivers wage increases over the next 3 years.

This contract is a massive victory for the cleaners and their families, and was only possible with the mass participation by the members in protest and political action.
