Community signs open letter to Agata and Valentina

Yesterday, hundreds of community members living near Agata and Valentina signed an open letter to the owners (Joe Musco and Louis Balducci) asking the employer to reflect on working conditions at the store during this religious week, the letter read: "During this meaningful week of Passover and Easter holidays, our families take time to reflect upon the hardships faced by workers in our community.  We are alarmed to learn that people who serve us so well in your store are suffering from sbstandard workplace conditions..." You can view the entire open letter here. When the community learned about the real working conditions inside the store the response was clear, they wanted change.

"The community had a very emotional response when talking about the treatment of workers inside the store" said Wendy Weiner, campaign coordinator for UFCW's Building Blocks Project.

    You have to express more your opinion to attract more readers, because just a video or plain text without any personal approach is not that valuable. But it is just form my point of view
