Workers at Best Western Seven Oaks have been striking in the freezing winter cold since last December in an effort to obtain respect and fairness on the job. The Best Western employees are asking for a living wage, fair benefits, and backpay, but the company refuses to negotiate.

To advance the call for a fair contract, the Best Western workers and their families are asking consumers, supporters, and friends to join the campaign for fairness at Best Western Seven Oaks by sending a letter to Best Western's President and CEO, David Kong. You can lend your support to the campaign for fairness at Best Western Seven Oaks by sending a message to the company today.
