Mitch McConnell, Hyatt, Rite Aid, Publix, Giumarra Vineyards, and the health & pharmaceutical industry have something in common - they're all in the running to become the 2010 National Jobs with Justice Scrooge of the Year!



VOTE NOW!

We're happy to announce that one of this year's candidates, Express Scripts, has taken steps to mend their Scroogey ways and has been pulled as a nominee. Unfortunately, there are still six worthy candidates to win this year’s Scrooge award (or you can write in your own candidate):

* Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell was nominated for leading the Republican party in aggressively blocking legislation that would benefit working people;
* Hyatt was nominated for trying to eliminate quality healthcare and make the recession permanent for its employees, and for their safety record;
* Rite Aid was chosen for failing to bargain a first contract with workers who joined a union two years ago and demanding unreasonable concessions from other workers;
* Publix was selected because they won’t join other companies in pledging to improve wages and working conditions for the farmworkers who pick their companies' tomatoes;
* Giumarra Vineyards is a candidate because of their long history of intimidating and bullying workers and violating their rights;
* The health and pharmaceutical industry was nominated for their single-minded focus on profits at the expense of our health.


You can read more about the candidates, and then VOTE for your favorite greedy Scrooge!

We’ll announce the winner on December 20th.

but, ultimately, he deserves to have this title.

Where's my prize?
