and from many Wayfair customers, who took to social media to swear off shopping at the furniture giant until the company rectified what they see as aiding a grave injustice.
Locals unaffiliated with Wayfair also joined the walkout to show their support for the protesting employees.An organizer with Boston’s Sunrise Movement chapter, a national organizing group that works to stop climate change, Faynshteyn told NBC News he joined the protest because he sees climate justice as an issue bound up with immigrant justice.
“We have people coming to our country fleeing the effects of violence and fleeing the effects of climate change” he said, adding that as a Jew and a first-generation immigrant from Ukraine, he sees the crisis on the southern border as “connected to the collective history” of his own people. DoneGood, an e-commerce shopping platform that only sources sustainable brands that empower workers, said it would donate all its profits Wednesday to RAICES.
“We agree with Wayfair workers that it's wrong for companies to seek to profit from a system that is taking children from families and keeping them in inhumane conditions,” the company’s founder, Cullen Schwarz, told NBC News., workers at Wayfair’s Brunswick, Maine, offices are also gathering to protest the company’s decision to furnish detention centers.
Wayfarer workers are all races
Then they should be fired.
Are you kidding. Wayfair sells furniture. Organization buys furniture. Do you protest if a charged rapist or murderer buys furniture from WayfairWalkout. Employees are out of control.
Fire them all
Fire the ones who walked off the job and hire some migrants
Hope they lose their job and are replaced by immigrants.
This is such a misguided protest.
Useful idiots of the Left.
Idiotic, misinformed robots to political correctness.
A better question is where is that furniture going? Those kids are still sleeping on floors.
Lol
Are they also going to stop eating at all restaurants that hire undocumented workers?
Fire every damn one if them!!!!!
The typical Democrat Voter !
Principals matter
They should keep walking. Replace them with illegals
I applaud these workers for not participating in war profiteering!! BoycottWayfair DumpTrump2020
LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder
This is a stupid protest. Wayfair selling beds at a reasonable price for the illegals comfort. Instead of protesting why not give back your salary for that time as a show of kindness. Foolish and non-starter, just a failed attempt. BTW were you docked time-doubtful Wayfair
If I was their employer I would fire them. you don't dictate to your employer who they can do business with and who they cant we still live in a free country
They must not need to work
Fire them all
This. Everyone of us. In our spheres of influence can and MUST do our part to protest these injustices. Bravo and may your efforts bear fruit. May your livelihoods be protected.
Are these really workers or protesters? Can’t believe anything associated with mainstream media these days!!!!
With the funding for help being blocked in the house, I've heard these are PelosiCamps
Yes it is. Obama did it, were was your outrage then. Seems selective.
Unskilled workers are easily replaced.
That one holding the 'cage' sign looks like she just got out of the elephant cage at the zoo.
Awesome protest by those with milk of human kindness.
There are many companies making more off govt contracts ... I think a Swedish firm did the same making tents. Create the problem then farm out contracts to your friends. It’s a good scam.
No worries, with open borders that Dems want, the illegals migrants will have their jobs, at half their pay. The boss is at the border bringing them up in buses now!!
Wayfair shame on you
so these wayfair workers would rather see the migrants sleep on a cement floor, I think they would help the cause much more if they went to the detention center & helped assemble the beds
Stupid. Will not accomplish anything. Someone has to supply furniture. Duh!
Wayfair you need to fire them all - You should make effort to recruit legal immigrants to fill those positions. Better yet hire illegals for half the cost 😂
Liberalism is a horrible disease.
Should be some job openings coming up at Wayfair. Job seekers keep your eyes out and stay vigilant. Some of the openings will probably be filled by a few illegals if you don't grab them first.
Why don't these unhinged fools want the migrant kids to have beds?
cannot allow illegals to sit down on a chair - they might not leave
I like the protest! I also like that kids will get beds. I don't care about the rest. As long as the families and kids in those horrible detention centers get a place to lay down and recover and live until we figure this out - is all I care about.
JFC. The grand ole USA has stepped back a hundred years. Or more.
So..... they don't want them to have anything? BTW your all fired!!!!
So they're stopping making beds for the kids to protest the kids not having beds? Makes sense.
In here to see all the low IQ deplorable orange buffoon lovers agree with the workers and think migrants being in cages should sleep on a floor and be treated like subhumans.
Wayfair now you know who all the racist are in your company!!! What are you going to do about it!!
They want the immigrants to sleep on the floor. They do not understand capitalism.
I will never buy a single thing from them again! I cannot understand all the ignorant hatred in this world. What is wrong with you PEOPLE? Is there something in your water?
they were all back at their desks within an hour for fear of being fired, just so you know....not exactly the most impactful statement
Hire employees that want to work
That's why the imbeciles work at Wayfair. They are incapable of looking at or understanding the bigger picture.
Hire migrants to fill their jobs win win
How is Wayfair stock doing?
Good for Wayfair!
These protesters would prefer children sleep on the floor
