I love Sundays. Picnics, river festivals, church events, it’s all about communities coming together. And, that’s exactly what WakeUpWalMart.com is doing – building a community of supporters who want to fight for a better America.
This morning we started in downtown Toledo. I have to admit, all of the ribs, barbecue chicken, funnel cakes and dippin dots were tempting. But, in between bites, people were talking about Wal-Mart and signing up to our campaign. Ok, don’t tell anyone else on the bus, but while the other canvassers weren’t looking, I snuck in a pulled pork sandwich. Having spent years in North Carolina, I just can’t resist it.
Now that our clipboards are a little greasy (as you might imagine), we are off to Regina. This event should have less food (thank God for my diet) and more rides. I can’t wait to get on the ferris wheel!
Believe it or not, it feels as good as it tastes to know you are doing something positive for millions of workers. And, don’t forget to join us tonight for our town hall with Congresswoman Marcy Kaptur if you live in the area.
