requested the Board to intervene on behalf of the 140 employees who work at the
non-profit organization “Children’s Services International,” to assist in

discrimination. He states that AB 1869

of public funds to use any of those funds to impede the workers’ efforts to

State monies are being used to discourage workers from organizing. Ilene Urbano requested the Board to support
the employees of Children’s Services International in their efforts to
organize.
