Challenge to Wal-Mart

Labor Groups Challenge Retail Giant Wal-Mart on Pressuring Employees to Vote Against Obama

Wal-Mart, the world's largest retailer, is being accused of violating federal election laws by urging its employees to vote against Senator Barack Obama in the November election. Last month, the Wall Street Journal revealed Wal-Mart has been warning its managers that an Obama victory would lead to unionization at Wal-Mart stores.

A coalition of prominent labor groups recently filed a complaint against Wal-Mart with the Federal Elections Commission.
