Dear Friends,

Housekeepers nationwide need your help. If you’ve ever stayed at a
Hyatt and had a good night’s sleep, you have a housekeeper to thank
for your fresh sheets and fluffed pillows. But invisible to hotel
guests is the pain and hardship that housekeepers endure to provide us
with an atmosphere of comfort and luxury.

That’s why Hyatt housekeepers have launched a global boycott of Hyatt.
Please take two seconds to support them by voting Hyatt the Worst
Hotel Employer in America.

Why is Hyatt the worst? Hyatt has replaced career housekeepers with
temp workers earning minimum wage. Hyatt housekeepers have heavy
workloads that can lead to debilitating pain and injuries. Hyatt has
fired women shortly after they have spoken out about abuse and
indignities at work. And Hyatt even turned heat lamps on workers
protesting these conditions during a brutal Chicago heat wave.

Worldwide, we are calling on two million people to take a stand and
Vote Hyatt Worst. By joining together, we will urge Hyatt to change
its ways.

Hyatt Hurts! They’re the Worst

I am wondering if you would be willing to post a facebook status
update (sample below) or tweet your friends about voting Hyatt the
worst.

Thanks for your support!
