VIDEO: Garth Brooks in Friends with Low Wages


American Rights at Work continues to wage a campaign to protect workers rights at Walmart. They need your help:

Did you happen to catch country star Garth Brooks in one of those Wal-Mart holiday commercials? According to Garth, "it's great to work for Wal-Mart."

But American Rights at Work wondered—what would happen if Garth found out what it's really like to work for the retail giant? What would he have to say about Wal-Mart's ruthless campaign against workers' rights?

Find out by watching our new video — "Friends with Low Wages" at

www.walmartworkersrights.org.

We've taken it upon ourselves to update a classic Garth hit and released a new 'music video' giving a behind-the-scenes look at how Wal-Mart treats its workers.

We hope you'll agree that the cartoon is hilarious, but the issue is a serious one. When Wal-Mart employees try to form a union, they often face threats, propaganda, discrimination, intimidation, and even firings.

Because we know you care about Wal-Mart workers' rights, we wanted you to be the first to see it. But we need your help to spread the word and get Wal-Mart to clean up its act and end its unionbusting ways.

Please watch the video at www.walmartworkersrights.org—and then afterwards, be sure to take action.

Thanks,

Liz Cattaneo
American Rights at Work

P.S. Can you forward this message to at least 10 of your friends? We're really counting on you to spread the word!
