  • Phony Philanthropy of the Walmart Heirs
    Legal Disclaimer: UFCW and OUR Walmart have the purpose of helping Wal-Mart employees as individuals or groups in their dealings with Wal-Mart over labor rights and standards and their efforts to have Wal-Mart publically commit to adhering to labor rights and standards. UFCW and OUR Walmart have no intent to have Walmart recognize or bargain with UFCW or OUR Walmart as the representative of Walmart employees. Walmart1Percent.Org WALTON FAMILY “PHILANTHROPY”: A Distraction from the Walmart Economy Americans believe in the power of charitable giving. Eighty-eight percent of American households give to charity, contributing more than $2,000 per year on average.1 Despite their charitable inclinations, most American families, acting on their own, lack the financial resources to make a significant impact on the problems facing our society. The Walton family, majority owner of Walmart, is a notable exception. As members of the richest family in the United States, the Waltons have $140 billion at their disposal—enough wealth to make a positive mark on the world and still leave a fortune for their descendants. The Waltons certainly wish to be seen as a force for good. Their company claims to help people “live better” and the Walton Family Foundation mission statement speaks of “creating opportunity so that individuals and communities can live better in today’s world.”2 But that mission statement seems ironic, given that many of the most acute challenges facing American families in 2014 could rightfully be viewed as symptoms of our “Walmart economy,” characterized by rising inequality and economic insecurity.

  • U.S. Department of Education Guidance Letter on Job-Driven Training to Tribal Leaders. (PDF)
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION Dear Tribal Leader: As you are aware, President Obama is committed to strengthening the nation to nation relationship with Indian tribes as well as strengthening tribal communities in general. In 2009, President Obama issued a Memorandum on Consultation (Memorandum) to agency heads regarding consultation with Indian tribes. Since the President’s memo in 2009, the Administration has worked to ensure regular and meaningful consultation, collaboration, and communication between Indian tribes and the federal government. We believe that the Presidential Memorandum on Job-Driven Training represents an important opportunity for a nation-to-nation consultation and discussion. We would appreciate an opportunity to discuss with you how we can best structure such discussion in late summer or fall and explore how best to pursue the job-driven training theme in pertinent education and training programs in Indian country. As background, we have enclosed an important correspondence that Secretary of Labor Tom Perez, Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker, Secretary of Education Arne Duncan, and Secretary of Health and Human Services Sylvia M. Burwell have sent to Governors across the country. In the 2014 State of the Union Address, President Barack Obama prioritized the need to ensure that job seekers and workers are equipped with the skills to help them advance and that businesses are enabled to hire more skilled workers. Following the Address, the President issued a memorandum on January 30, 2014 and charged Vice President Joe Biden, together with our Departments, to carry out a Government-wide review of Federal job training and education programs to ensure that Federal workforce and training system resources are effectively aligned.

Bantam, ISBN 553103148 The summer of 1863 was a cruel season for the 4,500 starving, beleaguered citizens of Vicksburg, Mississippi. For the Confederacy, the town was the most strategic spot in the West. The fate of Vicksburg -- now surrounded by the 77,000 men commanded by Union general Ulysses S. Grant -- might just determine the fate of the Confederacy. If the South lost the Mississippi River, it would forfeit the 150-mile-wide corridor south of Vicksburg to Louisiana's Port Hudson through which supplies and men poured east from western Louisiana, Texas, and Arkansas and sustained the Confederate armies. "We may take all the northern ports of the Confederacy and they can still defy us from Vicksburg," Abraham Lincoln observed in early 1862. "It means hog and hominy without limit, fresh troops from all the states of the far South, and a cotton country where they can raise the staple without interference.
