Dear Jack,

[ [link removed] ]Stand with Walmart
workers. Demand that
Walmart stop selling guns.
(signatures needed)

Walmart has a gun violence problem.

Yesterday, a gunman shot and killed two people and himself in the parking
lot of a Walmart in Duncan, Oklahoma.^1This horrific tragedy comes on the
heels of the El Paso Walmart shooting that took the lives of 22 people
just three months ago.

Thanks to the activism of Walmart workers and progressives like you,
Walmart recently restricted sales of some ammunition and banned customers
from carrying guns in its stores.^2 But that is not enough. We must keep
pushing until Walmart stops selling all firearms.

While Walmart continues to profit from the growing gun violence epidemic,
murderers are gunning down people at its stores. The shooting in Duncan,
Oklahoma and the El Paso, Texas massacre both happened at Walmart stores.
And over the summer, a Walmart employee shot and killed two co-workers at
a store in Southaven, Mississippi.

A few months ago, thousands of Walmart employees signed a petition
demanding that the retail giant get out of the dirty business of selling
guns. Thousands of progressives, including more than 65,000 CREDO members,
joined their call, forcing executives to restrict sales. Now, we need to
keep the momentum going.

Purging all Walmart stores of ammunition and firearms isn't just the right
thing to do to curb the country's gun violence epidemic, it's also a smart
business move. In fact, when Dick's Sporting Goods stopped selling guns
after the Parkland massacre and used the store real estate for other
products, its sales went up.^3 Walmart has no excuse.

petition.
