5/22/14: Message from UFW President Arturo S. Rodriguez re Prima Workers National Day of Action

Join hundreds of farm workers—including employees of Gerawan Farming Inc., — and their supporters in contacting store managers today at Walmart outlets across the country , asking that the retail giant to hold Prima accountable to Walmart’s “Standards for Suppliers”.  Farm workers are appealing to Walmart because it is one of the largest buyers of Prima-brand plums, peaches, nectarines and grapes produced by Gerawan. Since last year, Prima has been accused of serious multiple and repeated labor law violations by the State of California and been found to have violated the law by state officials..  That’s why Prima farm workers and their supporters have begun a campaign where they are going to local stores and handing managers a flyer calling on Walmart to live up to its promises.
