SAN FRANCISCO — “Dignity, respect, more money in my check!” chanted hundreds of protesters Nov. 29 as they rallied at the San Francisco International Airport, joining a national Fight-for-$15 day of action in more than 300 cities across the U.S. and at 19 airports. Participants here included fast-food workers who called off work and protested at a McDonald’s in Oakland earlier in the day. Some came in buses from San Jose, Sacramento and Fresno. Airport, home health care, construction, child care and other workers took part.
