STAND UP WITH THE WALMART 60
Support Walmart Strikers.
Dates: September 5, 2013
Time: 11:00 AM
Location: Pershing Square (Downtown Los Angeles, corner of 6th and Olive)

Americans believe in speaking up when something’s wrong – and the freedom to act together to make things right. But when Walmart workers came together to protest Walmart’s attempt to silence workers, Walmart responded by firing and disciplining more than 60 workers. It’s wrong for Walmart, America’s biggest company, to punish workers for exercising our legally protected rights. March with us and call on Walmart to reinstate and remove disciplinary actions from the Walmart 60! RSVP to Jeremy Lanni at Jeremy.Lanni@unacuhcp.org
