Pass AB 257
The FAST Recovery Act

Even before the pandemic, California’s half a million fast food workers faced an industry rife with wage theft, sexual harassment, discrimination, violence in the workplace and health and safety issues. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated many of these issues and workers’ demands for more power in the industry have become more important than ever.

AB 257, known as the FAST Recovery Act, will guarantee California fast-food workers the ability to shape industry-wide workplace standards and give them the power to hold corporations accountable for sticking to those standards.
