Ok. We are officially off and headed up highway 95 to NYC. Did you catch the AP story this morning about the bus tour? If not, you can read it here.
And, by the way, the movement to change Wal-Mart is gaining amazing momentum today. First, Sen. Dorgan wrote a book where he talks about Wal-Mart shipping U.S. jobs to China and the grave danger that poses to American workers. Second, Sen. John Kerry spoke out about Wal-Mart and it's "unconscionable" failure to provide more than half of its employees with company health care. Third, former Sen. John Edwards has agreed to keynote our bus tour event in Pittsburgh on Friday. And, fourth, but maybe most significant, both Sen. Lieberman and Ned Lamont will be joining our bus in Connecticut on Wednesday.
Apparently, all Democrats can agree on the need for Wal-Mart to change and become a better business that lives up to the best in American values!
We'll keep you posted on more details as we go. For now, get on the bus, sign up for your city, and get your friends to join our fight for change!
