Mayor, Council, and City Manger,
I would like to ensure you are aware of the upcoming roundtable panel discussion led by Representative Ro Khanna titled: Worker Cooperatives: An Alternative Business Model in the COVID Economy & Beyond. It will include State Assemblymember Ash Kalra, Santa Clara Mayor Lisa Gillmor; Worker Ownership: Zen Trenholm (Democracy at Work Institute), Hilary Abell (Project Equity), and Kirk Vartan (A Slice of New York).
It will be a 60-minute event on Wed, Sept. 16, 2020, from 12:00-1:00pm PST. The focus will be on how worker cooperatives can provide a viable alternative for baby boomers approaching retirement, especially for struggling businesses impacted by COVID-19. Join to learn more about how federal, state and local representatives can help make these solutions a reality.
Please try to hold this time so you can attend! This will be a very exciting event, with local, state, and national relevance, so I hope you can make it. See attached flyer and please share with others.

Stay strong in these difficult times.
-Kirk
