textNext Great Immigration Hurdle -- The Right to a Medical Interpreter by New America Media (reposted)
Today, millions of U.S. citizens and non-citizens who speak limited English have the legal right to free medical interpreting. But tomorrow could tell a different story. The Senate immigration bill sent to the congressional conference committee last week included one amendment that would uphold the right and another that could kill the right by making English the official language of the land.

by josh sonnenfeld
On Tuesday, May 23, UC Santa Cruz's custodians, part of the union AFSCME, continued their hard-fought wage parity campaign by staging a respectful protest inside Chancellor Denice Denton's Brown Bag event. The workers are frusterated over the Chancellor's lack of support for custodians and their families. While the Chancellor consistently refers to 'market rates' to justify top admin salaries (she earns upwards of $400,000/yr.), she has yet to support custodians whose poverty wages are up to ...
