Valentine's Day Weekend We're BREAKING UP with Trader Joe's Rally and Break-Up Letter Drop Off Sunday, February 12 at 2pm Union Square Trader Joe's (138 East 14th Street) The love affair with Trader Joe's is over! We're tired of the lies and false promises! Trader Joe's claims to be wholesome, hip and sustainable, but it’s all just an image. After nearly two years of a nation-wide campaign, Trader Joe's still refuses to sign an agreement with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers, a group of farm workers in Florida who have successfully pressured corporate giants like Whole Foods and McDonald’s to agree to ensure that farm workers in their supply chains get treated humanely and get paid at least one penny more per pound of tomatoes they pick. And now, to top it off, Trader Joe's is opening it's first Florida store, only 30 miles away from Immokalee on Immokalee Road. The CIW is planning a huge action during the “Grand Opening” weekend of the new store and we’ll be having a solidarity action here in New York to let Trader Joe’s know that enough is enough! The Community/Farmworker Alliance, NYC—one of many collectives nationally that organizes in solidarity with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers- invites you to join us and Trader Joe's customers on Sunday, February 12th at 2:00pm in front of the Union Square Trader Joe's. We will rally and make noise as a delegation takes in our break up letters to Trader Joe's. Featuring all the giant pink hearts you can stand, live music, and hot chocolate. Learn more about the campaign and sign a petition here. FACEBOOK Love, CFA   Fin de Semana del Día del Amor y la Amistad, San Valentín Trader Joe's! : SE ACABO! Vamos a TERMINAR Y DEJARLO de una vez por todas! Manifestación y entrega de cartas de separación y fin de nuestro amor Domingo, 12 de Febrero a las 2pm Union Square Trader Joe's (138 East 14th Street) El amorío con  Trader Joe's se acabó! Nos cansamos de tantas mentiras y promesas falsas. Se acabó! Trader Joes se presenta como muy completo, muy chido - bacán y sostenible, pero solo es una imagen. Después de casi dos años de una campaña nacional, Trader Joe's todavia se resiste a firmar un acuerdo con la Coalición de trabajadores de Immokalee, un grupo de trabajadores agrícolas que exitosamente han presionado a corporaciones gigantes como Whole Foods y McDonalds para que participen de los acuerdos que garantizan que los trabajadores agrícolas que proveen sus cadenas de proveedores, sean tratados humanamente y que por lo menos se les pague un centavo más por libra del tomate que piscan/cosechan. Y ahora para completar, Trader Joe's abrirá su primera tienda en Florida, a solo 30 millas de distancia de Immokalee on Immokalee Road. CIW planea una gran manifestación durante la gran apertura de la nueva tienda y tendremos una acción en solidaridad aquí en Nueva York para decirle a Trader Joe's BASTA! Se acabó, hasta aquí llegamos! ¡La Alianza Comunitaria con Trabajadores Agrícolas, NYC- uno de muchos colectivos a nivel nacional que organiza en solidaridad con la Coalición de Trabajadores de Immokalee (CIW) te invita a acompañarnos y a los clientes de Trader Joe's, el 12 de Febrero a las 2:00pm en frente del Trader Joes en Union Square. Manifestaremos y haremos ruido mientras una delegación lleva nuestras cartas de rompimiento amoroso a Trader Joes. Y porsupuesto que tendremos corazones rosados enormes, música en vivo y chocolate caliente! Entérate más sobre la campaña y firma la petición aquí here.
