A workers advocacy group is pressing California lawmakers to reverse what it claims are drastic cuts in compensation for injured workers by telling the stories of the workers affected by the changes.

Its first worker vignette concerned a worker at a kitchen store, whom the group said had ruptured three disks in her back after grabbing a falling display shelf.
