Support US farmworkers blacklisted for speaking out!

Seven tobacco farmworkers in the US state of North Carolina have been blacklisted for filing suit for wages owed in 2015. After refusing to withdraw their suit, they are now being denied employment for the 2016 season.

The IUF-affiliated Farm Labor Organizing Committee (FLOC) is requesting support in the fight for reinstatement of the 7 workers and payment of all wages owed. CLICK HERE TO SEND A MESSAGE TO JACKSON FARMS. You will be asked to fill in a form with your details to add your name to a letter to farm owner and North Carolina State Senator Brent Jackson.

Quick action is needed as the letter will be delivered on May 5th to Senator Jackson and to the tobacco companies that purchase North Carolina tobacco.
