Walmart says it wants you to live better. But they apparently don't feel the same way about the workers who pick the grapes and other produce they sell in their stores.

Thank you for telling Walmart they should exercise control over their suppliers by telling Giumarra/Nature's Partner to demonstrate corporate responsibility.

Sad to say this petition only covers a few workers. What about all the sweat shops that supply clothing and goods to Walmart. Walmart used to boast that they supported Americans by only supplying goods made in the United States. But that all changed as all the big companies started moving out of the United States to take advantage of cheap labor. Now the sweat shops in China and Korea and Taiwan and other countries including The United states supply a large portion of their goods. The human trafficking that is going on in the United states that government officials refuse to acknowledge is a major supply chain for these big corporations.

unfortunately they are treated like bottom feeders which is so unfortunate as they are the greatest asset to the business... the real work horses..
