Today's New York Times Business section features a story, titled "Wal-Mart’s Detractors Come In From the Cold." The story's main point is that campaigns like ours are "slowing down," as Wal-Mart changes and quiets critics. It is unfortunate that the Times chose to ignore all that we've done over the last year, and all that we are planning for this year, and instead focus on Wal-Mart's PR stunts as evidence of an imaginary slow down.

Here are just a few of the accomplishments you have helped us with in the last year:

-You helped us expose Wal-Mart's poor treatment of Mother's, especially military mothers like Olga Sanchez.

-You helped Debbie Shank get fair treatment from Wal-Mart, and Wal-Mart workers involved in our campaign signed our petition asking the company to do the right thing

-You helped spread the word about how Wal-Mart is trying to help China, not America.

-You helped our campaign (your campaign) grow by over 100,000 people in just the last year, we're up to 427,612 members and growing!

-You helped make our first web video such a huge success. More than 60,000 people have seen it, and there are more videos on the way.

It is truly unfortunate that the New York Times has ignored all this, but we wanted to let you know that we are not slowing down, and we are not letting Wal-Mart off the hook. Wal-Mart still has to do better. They've still got a responsibility to their employees and customers. We know they can change because we've seen it before.

Thanks for all you guys do! We're not slowing down, no matter what the Times says.
