Orange circle with National Domestic Workers Alliance written inside

Every day millions of domestic workers — house cleaners, nannies, eldercare workers, and home health aides — care for our nation’s homes and loved ones. But these domestic workers have been excluded from many of the basic labor protections that other workers are guaranteed.  That’s why the National Domestic Workers Alliance (NDWA) — the nation’s leading voice for dignity and fairness for domestic workers — along with Senator Kamala Harris and Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal, just announced the national Domestic Workers Bill of Rights.  This Bill of Rights would close legal loopholes that have historically excluded domestic workers. It would create protections for domestic workers like fair scheduling practices. It would strengthen support networks for domestic workers who are survivors of sexual assault. This bill is a statement of our collective values as Americans — that we respect and value all working people, regardless of whether they work in an office or in a home.  The Domestic Workers Bill of Rights is for every domestic worker who has been excluded from basic labor laws. Sign the petition: improve the lives of domestic workers by supporting the National Domestic Workers Bill of Rights. Sign now to join the National Domestic Workers Alliance in the fight to pass this bill.
