Up to the Minute News on Wal-Mart Now Available on DSA Web Site

DSA's Wal-Mart web site:   located at www.dsausa.org\lowwage\walmart is now updated every 15 minutes (during the day) with the latest news stories on Wal-Mart. This new feature is the result of a partnership with LabourStart the premier web site providing information on labor struggles around the world.

This new feature comes at a particularly important time as anti-Wal-Mart organizing has increased dramatically in the last month. The UFCW has launched a Mothers Day Shopping Campaign that ties a pledge to refuse to shop at Wal-Mart for Mothers Day gifts to the company's treatment of women workers. A national advertising campaign designed to educate consumers about Wal-Mart has been launched by the newly formed Center for Corporate and Community Ethics.

DSA has made a campaign against Wal-Mart's business model and practices one of its major priorities.
