Colorado farmworker rights & wages bills signed into law

"Colorado farmworker rights and wages bills signed into law, along with other measures aiding immigrants," 27 Jun. 2021

Thousands of immigrant farmworkers in Colorado will soon have state minimum wage, overtime and labor organizing rights under Senate Bill 87, signed into law ... by Democratic Gov. Jared Polis.

... “Colorado’s agricultural workers have been exploited for far too long in this state, and it’s well beyond time for us to provide them with the dignity and respect they deserve,” said Democratic Sen. Jessie Danielson, a driving force behind the new law who was raised on a family farm in northern Colorado.

... Dozens of supporters such as the Colorado Farmworkers’ Rights Coalition and Latino advocacy groups hailed the law as a continuation of the United Farm Workers movement led decades ago by Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta during California’s famed farmworker labor struggles.
