Why this is Important Now:
Ten current or recently fired Walmart workers were arrested in late August in Washington, DC for peaceful civil disobedience near Walmart's downtown office. This action comes after the company fired or disciplined more than 70 workers for going on strike. Now workers say that if Walmart does not reinstate the illegally fired workers and publicly commit to pay a decent wage by Labor Day, the company will face some of the most intense actions it has seen to date.

Dear Walmart & the Walton Family:
We call on you to:
1. Publicly commit to pay your workers a minimum real wage of $25,000 annually so they can support a family, and;
2. Immediately end your attempts to suppress workers’ rights by reinstating and rescinding punishment of the more than 70 Walmart workers who were unjustly targeted for standing up.
Failure to act will result in intensified actions nationwide.
