Last week California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger slashed wages of state workers to the federal minimum of $6.55 per hour to send a message to the state legislature which has yet to pass the state budget. On Sunday, those workers brought their own message to the Governor’s home in Brentwood, California. Hundreds of workers represented by the Service Employees International Union brought a symbolic “pink slip” to the home on Sunday, but the Governor wasn’t present to receive it. The workers argue that they have been unjustifiably punished by the governor and that they cannot live on such wages. The workers will be paid retroactively once the state budget is passed.
