CLERGY
& LAITY UNITED FOR ECONOMIC JUSTICE
Los Angeles County
CLUE
LA, founded in 1996, is one of the oldest interfaith
worker justice organizations in the country. CLUE LA's
mission is to bring together clergy and lay leaders
of all faiths to join low-wage workers in their struggles
for justice.
Its
many accomplishments began with key support for the
successful Los Angeles Living Wage campaign.
CLUE
LA took a leadership role in the battle to keep Wal-Mart
out of Inglewood; played a central role in the passage
of statewide legislation increasing funding for staffing
for nursing homes; provided strategic support for striking
grocery workers that brought the owner of Safeway back
to the bargaining table; created dramatic actions in
support of hotel workers in Santa Monica and Los Angeles
that were crucial to victory; and played an important
role in the public policy and corporate campaigns of
healthcare workers and janitors.
CLUE
LA has over 600 religious leaders and 1200 lay people
active in its work, including a very broad range of
ethnic and denominational constituencies, including
Christian Evangelicals, Muslim leaders and mosques,
all of the Jewish denominations, historic African-American
churches, Hispanic Pentecostals, and Korean congregations.
