Dear Gov. S.,
Congradulations on your victory! Please be sure to bring equal rights to all working people in NY State, including the farmworkers. They deserve the same things that all working New Yorkers expect--a day of rest, sick time, the minimum wage. These are the people who put food on our tables. Their labor feeds us--every day. Please don't forget about them. They deserve a place at the table along with everyone else doing an honest day's work in New York.
