CHICAGO — State Senator Robert Peters’ law banning employers from requiring workers to attend meetings regarding political or religious matters was signed into law on Wednesday.

“Forcing employees to attend meetings about the employer's political or religious views goes too far,” said Peters (D-Chicago). “There needs to be a balanced and impartial relationship between employers and employees.”

On Thursday, Nov. 10, there will be a SAFE-T Act Resource Fair at Quinn Chapel AME on 2401 S. Wabash Ave. Register: bit.y/SafeTActFairNov10
