19th Annual Labor Seder

This year’s Labor Seder was a huge success. Roughly 300 people attended to join us in honoring Brian Doherty, Secretary-Treasurer/General Agent of the Building Trades & Construction Council of the Metropolitan District (Metro BTC), and Rabbi Jill Jacobs, President of T’ruah: A Rabbinic Call for Human Rights.

We celebrated the victories of the Marriott Hotel Workers of UNITE HERE Local 26 and the Gas Workers of United Steelworkers (USW) Locals 12003 and 12012. We also recognized outgoing New England JLC Board Co-Chair Don Siegel for his decades of significant efforts on behalf of labor justice and for JLC as an organization.

In case you missed the seder, here is the Haggadah/Program Book 

Your attendance and support, helps NE JLC continue to engage the Jewish community to speak up on issues affecting all workers and engage the labor movement on issues that affect the Jewish community. We are committed to working for justice on issues of common concern to both communities. Thank you for recognizing the importance of this partnership.
