In honor of #WorkplaceReadinessWeek (April 28-May 2), a week created by the state of California to support young workers as they enter the workforce, we’d like to highlight this year’s Young Worker Leadership Academy (YWLA)!

As #WorkplaceReadinessWeek approaches, I talked to high school students at Jefferson High in LA about their rights in the workplace. Young workers are more often exploited & harassed at work. My bill now empowers them with the knowledge to protect themselves. Thank you for having me! #AB800 #CALeg
