    Justice for Janitors!

    By RCNorm  |  Posted April 28, 2012  |  Los Angeles, California
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     RCNorm documented these two protests that occurred on April 17 and April 27. These protesters are janitors who are fighting for higher wages; he says the Janitors Union is currently negotiating with several office buildings across L.A. 'They are simply asking for a decent wage and health care so they can take care of their families and do not feel they are getting a fair shake at the negotiation table.'

    'These are unsung heroes who do the work that others will not and many do not even realize that its being done.'
    - jne2013, CNN iReport producer

    The SEIU United Service Workers West are in negotiations for a new contract with the various office buildings in Los Angeles. They do not feel they are being given a fair shake at the negotiation table and held two large marches and rallies on April 17th and April 27th in Downtown LA to let the public know of their plight. These are candids taken from both events.
