Maybe now @kroger can focus on preventing modern-slavery in its supply chain by joining the @fairfoodprogram!

With 11,000 letters delivered to @kroger executives from customers concerned with the rights of farmworkers who put food on their tables, the answer is clear: @kroger must do the right thing and join the @FairFoodProgram.

Wendy’s will start experimenting with surge pricing in 2025, along the lines of Uber and Lyft.
Wendy’s will test “dynamic pricing” on burgers, Frosties, and other menu items, which will cost more during times of increased demand.

This is the same corporation refusing to pay farmworkers a penny more per pound for the produce they harvest. #BoycottWendys

Kroger wants to be the top supermarket chain in the country even as a human rights crisis is unfolding in their supply chain. How can we trust @Kroger to be a leader in food retail when they refuse to protect farmworkers from modern-slavery by joining the @FairFoodProgram?

Farmworkers have been organizing to get Wendy’s to sign onto the Fair Food Program for a decade.
The four largest fast food chains, including Burger King and McDonald’s, have all signed onto the benchmark human rights program — but Wendy's refuses.

Lupe Gonzalo, a former farmer and one of the leaders of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers, says joining the Fair Food Program will help “guarantee human rights” and “dignity for workers.”
