Today, Cleo Forward, a current Wal-Mart support manager in Dallas, Texas, will call on Wal-Mart to change its anti-family policies and start putting America's families first. 
<P>When Wal-Mart asked him to stay silent, here is what Cleo said: "Wal-Mart said I have a 'duty of loyalty' to the company and that I cannot speak out. But what about my 'duty of loyalty' to the 1.4 million Wal-Mart Associates who built this company, and are suffering under Wal-Mart's new anti-family policies? What about my 'duty of loyalty' to tell the truth to the American people?" 
<P>Cleo is not alone. All over the country, Wal-Mart employees are calling on Wal-Mart to change for the better this Holiday season. And, for the first time, 3 brave Wal-Mart Associates are taking to the airwaves to tell the American people directly why Wal-Mart needs to change. 
<P>Watch our latest TV ad: 
<P><B><A href="http://wakeupwalmart.com/feature/holidays/videos.html" target=_blank>http://wakeupwalmart.com/feature/holidays/videos.html</A></B> 
<P>The Wal-Mart workers in the ad say it best, this Holiday season, "Our children, our families, deserve better." That is why we need your help. 
<P>We have less than 4 weeks left until Christmas, so, put down the egg nog and let's go change America for the better. Because, while Wal-Mart suffers its first sales decline in over a decade, you have grown our campaign into one of the fastest growing social movements in America. 
<P>As you know, as part of our holiday campaign, we have been asking you, each week, to join with us in one coordinated action to send Wal-Mart a message that it must reverse its anti-family policies and give America "Hope for the Holidays." This week's action is to send a letter to your local newspaper telling them about the personal stories you just saw in the TV ad and educating your local town about why Wal-Mart needs to change. 
<P>Watch our latest TV ad and take action this Holiday season: 
<P><B><A href="http://wakeupwalmart.com/feature/holidays/videos.html" target=_blank>http://wakeupwalmart.com/feature/holidays/videos.html</A></B> 
<P>Together, with over 288,000 supporters, we are proving the power ordinary people have to do extraordinary things. And, I can't tell you, especially during the Holiday season, how personally moved I am to be a part of such an amazing effort. 
<P>We really are going to change Wal-Mart and change America for the better. 
<P>Good luck with your letters and thank you for all that you do. 
<P>Wishing you all season's greetings,
