Stop Slavery & Sweatshops in the Fields
"IN BRIEF: 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".
