United Students Against Sweatshops (USAS)

Web       http://www.studentsagainstsweatshops.org/

A network of students in North America who have been organizing for workers' rights since 1998.

We believe our universities must respect all workers in their supply chains-- from those who serve us food in the dining halls, to housekeepers and janitors who clean our dormitories, to farmworkers who pick the food we eat in those dining halls, to the garment workers who make apparel with our universities' name. We support the right of all workers to organize unions and other democratic worker organizations, to earn living wages that meet the basic needs of their families, and to be treated with respect.
