Farmworkers To Protest Exploitation At Giant Today
Monday, November 15, 2010(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)
Farmworkers and members of the Food Chain Workers
Alliance and the Georgetown Solidarity Committee will demonstrate outside Giant
Supermarket in Columbia Heights at 5P
today to protest the company’s alleged involvement in farmworker
exploitation. “Ahold, Giant's parent company, has so far refused to sign a
Fair Food agreement with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers and therefore
continues to play an active role in farmworker exploitation,” says the Food
Chain Workers Alliance. Click here now to
