“We are proud to be here today with a strong delegation of janitors and leaders from churches and institutions across Houston, to stand with you to make Justice for Janitors a reality. We know what this campaign can do for janitors because we have seen what this campaign has done – in Chicago and Los Angeles, where our sister organizations in the Industrial Areas Foundation have supported Justice for Janitors. We are here today to say that we stand with you here in Houston.”

We have no vacations, no paid holidays, we might even get fired on the spot if we miss a day. We do the hardest work there is. Those companies should be ashamed. We're putting in an honest day's work, and we want an honest day's pay."
