Friends,
Yesterday, our friends from Warehouse Workers United challenged Walmart to save jobs and adopt a Responsible Contractor Policy. They rallied in Mira Loma, California outside of Schneider Logistics, a Walmart contractor that is planning to fire more than 100 workers at the end of February. The move comes after workers participated in a lawsuit to recover stolen wages. These workers deliver millions of pounds of goods every year, moving items from warehouses to Walmart shelves across the country. I'm proud that members of OUR Walmart, UFCW Local 770, and UFCW Local 1428 joined the demonstration. Now, I'm asking you to stand with Warehouse Workers United and tell Walmart to treat all employees with respect. Please sign the petition and stay tuned for more developments in this ongoing struggle. Sincerely, Walmart Watch [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- LAAMN: Los Angeles Alternative Media Network --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe: <mailto:laamn-unsubscr...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe: <mailto:laamn-subscr...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Digest: <mailto:laamn-dig...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Help: <mailto:laamn-ow...@egroups.com?subject=laamn> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post: <mailto:la...@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive1: <http://www.egroups.com/messages/laamn> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archive2: <http://www.mail-archive.com/laamn@egroups.com> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yahoo!
