Telemundo Covers Rights of Immigrant Domestic Workers

This item from Andrea Lee at the San Francisco immigrant rights advocacy organization Mujeres Unidas y Activas:
"The National Domestic Workers’ Allliance from CASA Maryland had an important victory – Montgomery County passed their Household Workers’ Bill of Rights!!! The new law requires all individuals who employ a household worker for more than 20 hours a week to have a signed contract.
This victory has gained huge publicity. Last night was Domestic Workers Night on Telemundo! In addition to a program profiling Casa Maryland’s campaign there was a piece about the Bay Area Household Workers’ Coalition organizing efforts as well."
