No one should experience sexual harassment at work.
Today, McDonalds workers are making their voices heard by demanding an end to the rampant sexual harassment in their restaurants.
Since news broke that L.H., a 14-year-old McDonald’s worker in Pittsburgh, was assaulted by her manager. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) charged in a federal lawsuit that workers at 22 McDonald’s stores, some of them teenagers, were subjected to “constant groping,” offensive comments, and sexual intimidation, among other types of harassment.
Despite McDonalds promises, they have failed to adequately address sexual violence at their stores.
And so today, McDonald’s workers in over 10 cities across the country are walking out on STRIKE to demand McDonald’s address the pattern of sexual harassment in its stores across the U.S. and the world.
Sign the @fightfor15movement petition to tell McDonald's: It's time to put a stop to sexual harassment and violence in your restaurants.
Together we are stronger, together our voices can be heard, together we can win real changes for millions of McDonald’s workers and other low-wage workers in this country.

Mon, May 3, 2021 "You're not a failure in life if you work for starvation wages with no benefits. You're a failure in life if you're a business owner who depends on the exploitation of a poverty-wage workforce, no matter how many yachts or mansions you have. It's time to redefine success in America - Warren Gunnels, @GunnelsWarren

I stood in a crowd of my fellow employees as well as many others protesting what i believed was wrong. Walmart, a multibillion company, for some reason is unable to pay its employees a proper wage. I'm poor and i'm not even able to afford food for my kids all the time. As a result i'm fasting until Walmart raises my fellow employee a proper wage. I'm not the only one, some others are fasting all food and liquids and many others are fasting, only drinking liquids. Walmart is filthy rich and i can't understand why they can't raise the worker's pay. Maybe they are just greedy. When they do raise our wages they blame our higher wages for lowing stocks. We will not give up until Walmart proper pays us for the work we do.
