Thank Master Lock for Bringing Jobs Home

Thank Master Lock for Bringing Jobs Home

The Issue

We all know about outsourcing, but recently Master Lock has reversed the trend bringing 3 dozen jobs from China back to the United States. It is good news for Milwaukee, Master Lock's headquarters, which lost over 80 percent of its manufacturing jobs from 1977 and 2002. It also means 3 dozen fewer workers are toiling in sweatshops; instead the workers in Milwaukee are unionized and enjoy decent wages and good benefits.

Please take a minute to write to Master Lock and thank them for bring these jobs home, and ask them to continue rejecting sweatshop and bring more jobs back to the USA. This could be the start of a positive trend.
