As reported in this week's Democracy Now, Whole Foods, along with Starbucks, Wall Mart, and Costco (not 100% sure on Costco) have launched an ad campaign to stop the Employee Free Choice Act which would allow workers to form unions more easily. We should organize a picket of Whole Foods until they change their position.
Thank you, Amigo. In reply to the comment above, it was WalMart that DN! reported as not %100 sure.

"In labor news, executives from Costco, Starbucks and Whole Foods have launched a campaign to block the passage of the Employee Free Choice Act, which would make it easier for workers to form unions. The three retail giants have proposed a so-called compromise bill that strips the key portions of the legislation. The companies want to preserve the current law that allows employers to force workers to hold a secret ballot election before recognizing a union. Under the Employee Free Choice Act, workers would be able form a union if a majority of them signed a card or a petition."
