IL HR0496

Urges Portillo's Restaurant Group, Inc. to honor its food distribution workers' April 2023 vote to unionize and bargain collectively.

Calls on all Illinois state elected officials to support Portillo's food distribution workers seeking better working conditions, livable wages, and sick time benefits.

References Portillo's appeals of NLRB rulings (filed April 19, 2023 and August 2, 2023) that sided with workers' unionization efforts.

Notes Illinois passed the Workers' Rights Amendment in November 2022 guaranteeing the right to unionize and bargain collectively.

Requests Portillo's respect workers' constitutional rights to collective bargaining under Illinois law.
