ACRE's Deputy Comms Director Mar Arain is cohosting the “No Profits Without Us” panel in DC with Indonesian Nike garment workers and union activists Leni Oktira Sari, Dedhe Nurhasanah, and Dinar Swandi
Garment workers who make @Nike billions deserve living wages and human rights. Thanks @SenSanders for supporting the Fight the Heist campaign.
Proud to stand with workers, unions @asia_floorwage in this fight #SeeUsNike
Last year, @Nike made $23 billion. Its founder is worth $35 billion. But Nike pays just dollars a day to the workers who make its products.
Today I met Dinar, who sews 222 labels an hour onto Nike products. She is paid $202 a month.
This is corporate greed at its worst.
Garment workers from Indonesia, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan have organized together to demand wage increases and labor rights protections from Nike.
Today we share these workers' pictures, so Nike sees them & all they do. @global_labor#FightTheHeist

We've now heard from two family members of victim who say they wanted a chance to talk with Jessie Hoffman. That hasn't happened. Hoffman wrote an apology to them in his 2023 clemency petition that also never reached them.
