Columbus, Ohio - This May Day, Amazon, Whole Foods, Instacart, Target, Walmart and FedEx workers throughout the nation will be walking out of work to call attention to workplace safety and issues during COVID. As a coalition of “essential workers” across different companies, we all agree that our employers are putting their profits before our lives, as they continue to amass incalculable amounts of wealth while our lives are put at risk daily. Although our organization’s share varying demands for workplace reform, we all share the common platform for essential health protections as well as sick and hazard pay. 

We are proud to stand in solidarity with all essential workers, the unemployed, and the imprisoned on this International Workers’ Day as we strike for a safe and just resolution to our current health and economic crisis.
