On January 20, 2018, on the one-year anniversary of the first Women's March, people of all backgrounds will come together in Hartford to defend women's rights, workers' rights, civil rights, immigrant rights, and much more.
So please join us at the State Capitol Building on Saturday, Jan. 20, at 12:30 p.m. as we launch the 2018 Women's March agenda. This includes an important section on workers' rights that, in part, reads:
"All women should be paid equitably, with access to affordable childcare, sick days, healthcare, paid family leave, and healthy work environments. All workers - including domestic and farm workers, undocumented and migrant workers - must have the right to organize and fight for a living wage."
There will be a march at 12:30 p.m. from the north side of the Corning Fountain to arrive at the Capitol at 1:00 p.m.
Those with limited mobility or those who do not wish to march can just gather at the Capitol.
