Related Article: Retail sales climbed 0.5% in July - edition.cnn.com - Friday, August 15, 2025, 8:58:59 AM Eastern Daylight Time
Target: U.S. Congress, Department of Labor, Major Retail Corporations
Goal: Urge policymakers and retail industry leaders to guarantee fair wages, stable hours, and comprehensive benefits for all retail and service sector workers.
Retail sales in the United States rose by 0.5% in July, reflecting the resilience and determination of American consumers. However, the workers who fuel this growth often struggle with low pay, inconsistent scheduling, and lack of access to essential benefits like healthcare and paid leave. With consumer spending accounting for the majority of our economic output, it is only fair that the workers behind this success are treated with dignity and respect.
We call on policymakers and retail industry leaders to take meaningful action to address these inequities. By raising the minimum wage, ensuring predictable work schedules, and expanding access to benefits, we can build a stronger, more just economy for everyone.
Key Demands
- Raise the federal minimum wage to at least $15 per hour.
- Mandate predictable and fair scheduling practices for all retail and service workers.
- Require all large retailers to provide comprehensive health insurance and paid leave.
- Strengthen protections for workers who organize for better conditions.
- Establish stronger enforcement of labor laws to prevent wage theft and exploitation.
