"The Walt Disney Company will “Feel the Bern” when United States Senator Bernie Sanders arrives in Anaheim on June 2 on behalf of Disney Resort workers. All the details are finally set for the rally and roundtable ahead of a proposed $15 Anaheim Resort living wage ballot initiative hoping to qualify for the November ballot. On the morning of June 2, thousands of Disney workers and Sanderistas are expected to fill the River Church Arena (which used to be the famed Celebrity Theatre) behind Anaheim city hall.

The democratic socialist senator from Vermont will speak directly with workers who would stand to benefit from the ballot measure in a roundtable setting. Sanders, who recently announced his senate reelection bid, criticized the Walt Disney Company for its poverty pay during his popular 2016 presidential campaign and will hone in on similar themes next month. He’s since championed the call for a federal jobs program that would give unemployed Americans a $15 an hour wage with health care benefits. If passed, the local Anaheim living wage ordinance will raise the wage floor of taxpayer subsidized companies in the resort to $15 an hour in 2019 with annual dollar increases to $18 an hour in 2022.

Presented by the Coalition of Resort Labor Unions and Good Jobs Nation, the roundtable is free and open to the public with doors opening at 9 a.m. The rally begins at 10 a.m. See you there!"
