In 2023-2025, Casa Latina (CL) continued its work to improve the working conditions of domestic workers in Seattle, King County, and Washington state by changing the policies that affect them. This project was focused on implementing and completing the work CL led to win a Domestic Worker Bill of Rights in Washington. It allowed CL to continue staffing the efforts, supporting the Domestic Worker Coalition to advance portable paid time off (PTO) policies and a more comprehensive state workers compensation, and supporting the leadership of domestic workers in the state study group to continue advocating for legislation.
