#walmartstrikers continue to circulate petitions at various locations, including the LA auto show.
"The time to end the long assault on workers' rights has arrived and is being led by tens of thousands of workers in the fast-food industry, retail industry and other low-wage sectors of the economy. A historic sit-down strike at two L.A. area Walmarts this past Thursday shows that they mean business!.
This weekend is packed with activity and we need volunteers so we can gather a lot of signatures. Do you have any time available? Please contact us if you do and we'll work out a time slot for you to help."
