2014 Black Friday Actions Bigger and Better

Walmart

WM Final-Graphic-2014 (4)

This year Walmart workers sent a clear message to Walmart and the Waltons: America deserves better.

Thanks for making this Black Friday season one to remember. From Anchorage to Orlando, Chicago to New Orleans, the UFCW made a huge impact:

  • Largest strikes ever at Walmart & historic first big sit-down strikes.
  • Protests in all 50 states & at 1,600+ Walmart stores.
  • Walmart workers from more than 2,250 stores signed a petition calling for $15 & full time.
  • #WalmartStrikers trended once nationally on Twitter and twice nationally on Facebook, bumping Kim Kardashian and Star Wars.

Will you share our accomplishments on social media, so our friends can spread the word?
