Chris Kofinis Quotations

The Maryland bill is a responsible piece of legislation that will make sure that large employers live up to their health care responsibilities.

The notion that Sam Walton cared about its workers, and the community, those positive aspects have gone.

It's another sad day where Americans learn the truth about Wal-Mart's business practices and the depths they will go to provide so-called low prices.

Our hope is that what comes from this is that Wal-Mart will take seriously our concerns and millions of people who want to see Wal-Mart do the right thing every day,

Wal-Mart understands that they have a growing public relations disaster on their hands. American people are looking at a company with $10 billion in profit and $285 billion in sales that makes excuse after excuse about why it can't provide a living wage and health care to its workers.

Wal-Mart's future in 2006 will not look any brighter unless Lee Scott realizes that Wal-Mart must change into a more responsible employer.

Wal-Mart is facing a perfect storm of negativity. People are rallying around this movement. It's not just workers. It's rippling out and becoming a real debate about values.

economic divide in this country that we are fighting as a group to address.

We don't want to destroy Wal-Mart. We want to change it, to make it a decent, humane company, which it could easily do. We're not going to rest or sleep one bit until that happens.

Rather than address the serious issues of unaffordable health care, poverty wages, crime, and sprawl, Wal-Mart?s latest and greatest public relations stunt is to try to rebuild a fraction of the very communities and small business it has helped destroy.
