Transnational Campaigns
Low-wage workers in the United States and Mexico are increasingly employed by large transnational corporations that use a variety of methods to suppress workers’ rights. This relationship of grossly unequal power is a major cause of the growing gap between rich and poor, not only in North America, but also throughout the world. These corporations use the superior mobility provided them by their transnational character to threaten—often carrying out those threats—to close down a business operation where workers insist that their rights be respected. Workers and their organizations have to date been relatively unsuccessful in countering this aspect of corporate power. Enlace affiliates are working to reverse this negative trend.
