We are a movement of people working at Walmart and Amazon fighting to live with dignity and respect.
Pinned
Our mission began with organizing for respect at Walmart a decade ago. They weren't a fan of our protests, and took us to court to ban us from their stores and premises in several states.

Can you relate?
“I'm a disabled single parent. Without Medicaid and SNAP, I will die. I've worked & paid into the system for 34 years. I don't deserve to feel like a parasite who should die off.” (Paige C., Amazon associate in KY)

Millions of working families face an immediate risk of going hungry.
We cannot let our elected officials ignore the working families across our country who stand to lose the most — politicians need to hear directly from the people whose lives they’re playing with.

Without SNAP...
“I'll become homeless trying to feed my family. Food comes first, before paying other bills. I’ve worked 40+ hrs/week most of my life & still rely on food stamps. My work ethic isn't the problem, it's the company not paying living wages.” (Tiff B. of OR)

Tired of hearing about "cost of living" while our medical bills soar? Hospital closures and rising premiums are hitting families hard. We won't pay the tab for tax cuts benefiting billionaires. Join UFR and Popular Democracy in calling on Congress to #SaveOurCare! https://bit.ly/3KLJMdT

Access to healthcare isn't a luxury but a fundamental freedom. Denying working families the care we need is state violence against our communities. We must demand accountability + fight for the healthcare we deserve. Take action with UFR and Popular Democracy on October 8! https://bit.ly/3KLJMdT
Stop the Shutdown!

Yesterday, we marched together in the spirit of Labor Day — a holiday created by workers who refused to accept poverty wages, 12-hour shifts, and dangerous conditions. This fight continues — and it’s powered by all of us.

This Labor Day, working people are rising up to stop the billionaire takeover — not just at the ballot box or in the courts, but by building a stronger, unstoppable movement together.

Women make up about half of field and customer service staff at Amazon. But they're only about a quarter of senior leaders. Tell Amazon's execs women deserve better pay and an equal shot at promotions. Make a stand today! act.united4respect.org/a/amazon-wom...
