Facing Poverty At UC .org

Over the next few weeks, we will go across the state from campuses to medical centers and visit workers in their homes with faith leaders and elected officials to hear their stories about facing poverty. In the past few weeks, State Senator Christine Kehoe, Assembly member Jose Solario, Chair of the Assembly Higher Education Committee Anthony Portentino, Madre Patricia Andrews-Callori, and Rabbi Laurie Coskey have visited workers in their homes. When visiting with UCSD custodian Maria Moreno, Senator Kehoe said, "What we have is a problem where lower wage workers on the campuses and the hospitals, like yourself, are not making enough to survive."
