Mushroom workers at Pictsweet Mushrooms in Ventura, Calif., have been trying for years to win fair pay, benefits and, most of all, safe working conditions. Conditions at Pictsweet in Ventura are cruel and dangerous. Mushroom workers labor in dark and damp rooms. Floors are slippery. Only the lights on their helmets guide the mushroom workers. Workers have complained that over time the lack of proper lighting has caused their vision to deteriorate. Because of these conditions, workers are asking customers to stop buying Pictsweet mushrooms. Pictsweet has lost many major customers including Vons, Safeway and Ralphs supermarkets which are honoring the workers' requests. You can help. Pizza Hut is one of Pictsweet's largest customers and has refused to do the right thing by keeping Pictsweet mushrooms off its pizzas until Pictsweet signs a union contract and workers win safe and healthy jobs and better pay. Click on the link below now to send Pizza Hut a fax. Tell Pizza Hut to stop buying Pictsweet mushrooms. http://www.unionvoice.org/campaign/pizzahut/3xbb6z0b8w After you send your fax, tell your friends, family and co-workers about this struggle for justice for Pictsweet mushroom workers. http://www.unionvoice.org/ct/ddqNqtn1qpqB/ -------------------------------------------------- If you would like to unsubscribe from Working Families e-Activist Network, you can respond to this email with "REMOVE" as the subject, or you can visit your subscription management page at: http://www.unionvoice.org/pvtm/index.tcl?nkey=3xbb6z0b8w *********************************************** Click on the link below for more information from your union, online activism and benefits. http://www.unionvoice.org/wfn/join.html ***********************************************
