LOS ANGELES—A group of 50 warehouse workers ended their 50-mile march protesting unsafe work conditions, especially in facilities that contract with Walmart, with a rally of 250 supporters on the steps of Los Angeles City Hall Sept. 18. T he six-day demonstration followed a one-day strike at a Mira Loma warehouse run by NFI Industries, one of the contractors. The march was organized by Warehouse Workers United to press Walmart to improve conditions. “The struggle is about health and safety,” Javier Rodriguez, one of the marchers, told the Militant. “Workers are working together inside Walmart. The union is the people fighting for the same thing.”
