and they’re people who are living on the

edge o fnancial security.”

“Most arm workers have to really stretch their pay and their ood just to get to

the next paycheck. They choose between uel to get to work and ood to eed their amilies. That’s the experience o many workers. And in the extreme cases,

where there’s not enough work, and no pay,

the children in these amilies will go hungry.”
