THE PETITION IS IN!:
We are still looking for 25 - 30 petition carriers to hit the streets! Read up on the petition here and send us an email to get started.
WHAT IS THE CAMPAIGN?:
The Campaign to Raise the Minimum Wage in the City of Greensboro is many things:
- a citizens initiative allowed by Greensboro's city charter
- a peoples movement for social change
- an experiment in grassroots democracy
- and an effort for a greater measure of economic justice
