We, the undersigned, support the Campaign and Petition to Bring WALMART STORES to New York City for the following reasons: Employment Opportunities; Savings on Goods & Services; Funding for Youth & Social Programs; Scholarship Opportunities; and Support for re-entry initiatives for those under Criminal Justice Supervision. For decades, Powerful Groups have worked behind the scenes to keep Walmart out of N.Y.C. without Giving the People a Voice in the Matter. With this Petition, the People now have a Voice and we want to be HEARD by our Elected officials and others who make the Final Call.
I have been reading through your messages about how much these resources would change the daily reality for our families. The people blocking these stores ignore the struggle of our neighbors but they cannot ignore all of you.

Seeing this kind of movement confirms that people across our city are tired of waiting for affordable options and better jobs. It is incredible to see so many of you who understand that we deserve the same opportunities as everyone else.

Living in the city is way to expensive and we need somewhere to shop that doesnt cost double. Just bring it here already so my paycheck finally lasts longer then a week.
