CIW National Petition Drive to Support Tomato Workers

By Coalition of Immokalee Workers

Sign the petition in support of tomato workers in Florida: http://fairfoodnation.mayfirst.org/petition

The CIW is launching a national petition drive to
demand that Burger King and other food industry leaders work with the
CIW to improve the wages and working conditions of  the workers who
pick their tomatoes, and join with the CIW in an industry-wide effort
to eliminate modern-day slavery and human rights abuses from Florida’s
fields.  The petitions will serve as notice that those who sign are “prepared to stop patronizing Burger King now, and other food industry leaders in the future, should they fail to do so.
The campaign comes on the 200th anniversary of the US ban against the
importation of slaves, and echoes key strategies of the early
abolitionist movement that helped hasten the end of slavery in the 19th
century.
