Friend, 60 million people sew our clothes, and they are paid some of the lowest wages in the world. In the year since the COVID-19 pandemic began, garment workers have lost at least $3 billion dollars in income, resulting in many workers struggling to afford basic needs, like food for their families. But Amazon? It's made BILLIONS in profits during the pandemic. It's time to share those profits. This week, Green America joined over 200 NGOs and trade unions calling on all apparel brands to: - Pay the workers who make their clothes their full wages for the duration of the pandemic;
- Make sure workers are never again left penniless if their factory goes bankrupt and
- Protect workers’ right to organize and bargain collectively.
