I am so grateful for your support. Detroit's rebound has helped bring back a key industry: private security. . . . However, many of the security officers who keep downtown safe for others are unable to enjoy the benefits of the same prosperity they help secure. The SEIU surveyed nearly 50 security officers in downtown Detroit and found that officers can earn as little as $22,000. Nearly half of the officers surveyed say they rely on public assistance to make ends meet, while a quarter note that have to work two jobs to support themselves and their families. The same people who secure these downtown buildings are the ones who lived here and stayed here during the city’s greatest struggles. . . . We need one Detroit, where no working person should struggle to put food on the table for their families. . . . All working families [deserve] the opportunity to participate in Detroit’s resurgence and thrive with at least a $15 hourly wage.
