VIDEO OF PROTEST IN TARGET STORE from MOVEON.ORG

I REFUSE TO SHOP AT TARGET UNTIL THEY MAKE A $150,000.00 DONATION TO A HUMAN RIGHTS GROUP LIKE AMNESTY INTL. AND THEY PUBLICLY PROMISE TO KEEP TARGET CORP. OUT OF POLITICS. I HAVE ALSO STOPPED SHOPPING AT BEST BUY. I WILL NOT SPEND MY MONEY AT STORES THAT WORK AGAINST MY VALUES ON WORKERS RIGHTS AND HUMAN RIGHTS. SIGN THE PETITION BY CLICKING THE LINK BELOW, WATCH THE VIDEO AND SHARE WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS.
The Minneapolis-based retailer Target just gave over $150,000 to buy ads supporting state Rep. Tom Emmer, a far-right Republican candidate for governor. This makes Target one of the very first companies to take advantage of the Supreme Court's Citizens United decision allowing unlimited corporate cash in elections.

Target must think customers won't care. They're wrong: We do care, and we need to let them know that we want Target -- and all corporations -- out of our elections. Can you join me in sending a message to Target's CEO at the link below?

Last weekend, Target customers fed up with Target's shameless attempt to buy an election in Minnesota took their message straight to their local store—but with a great creative twist!

Target seems to be hoping the outrage will die down. Let's show the company it won't. If you like this video, pass it along. Thanks!
Thanks for all you do.
