After years of public pressure from the Farm Labor Organizing Committee, Reynolds American continues to refuse to guarantee collective bargaining rights, fair wages, and decent housing in their supply chain.
On Friday, August 28, Youth members of FLOC, including teenage tobacco farmworkers from NC and members of the FLOC Homies Union in Toledo will deliver over 20,000 petitions to Reynolds Washington, DC HQ, calling on the company to sign an agreement with FLOC to improve conditions for tobacco farmworkers across the South East.
12:30pm: FLOC members/supporters will gather at the AFL-CIO, 815 16th St NW, Washington, D.C.
After a brief update on the campaign, we will walk to Reynolds DC HQ at 1201 F st. NW, Washington, D.C.
1:15pm: We will gather outside the Reynolds HQ and then deliver the petitions to Reynolds executives.
The group will then return to the AFL-CIO building and close out the action
