Help Workers on Strike in Brooklyn

We are mostly immigrant workers at an oil terminal in Brooklyn owned by billionaire John Catsimatidis.  We have been on strike against Catsimatidis’ oil company, United Metro Energy Corporation, for almost 10 months. We do the work that earns Catsimatidis his millions, yet he refuses to pay us industry-standard wages – and now he has illegally permanently replaced us on the job.

We need financial help in order to keep our families fed and housed while we continue to fight for our jobs, and for respect and fair pay. We are essential workers who worked through the pandemic, then were told we didn't deserve to be paid the same as other oil workers in New York.  Any contribution you can make will help. We appreciate your support and thank you for your solidarity.
