Mr. James Skinner, CEO
McDonald's Corporation
2111 McDonald's Drive
Oak Brook, IL 60523
Dear Mr. Skinner:
I am writing to encourage you to enter into an agreement with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW) similar to the agreement between CIW and Yum Corporation and Taco Bell. The agreement would involve paying each farmworker an extra penny for each pound of tomatoes or other crops harvested.
I hope there will not be a boycott of McDonald's as there was with Taco Bell before it made its agreement with CIW. I think a lot of people would support this boycott because of the publicity and success of the Taco Bell boycott.
I hope your corporation will do the right thing and avoid all this controversy. My only concern is the well-being of our fellow human beings in Florida.
Thank you for your consideration of this letter.
Sincerely,
Bishop Hee-Soo Jung
