Activists in Burger King Campaign Miami Fair Food Committe participates in National Days of Action for Fair Food.
May 19th and 20th, 2007
The Miami Fair Food Committee, which includes students and faith community representatives, visited Burger King Headquarters in Miami on behalf the Coalition of Immokalee Workers' Fair Food Campaign.

Burger King, the world's second largest burger company, has claimed that the penny per pound is not "doable" and that the company has no control over the growers and their treatment of the workers. But Yum Brands has done it and McDonald's has done it and we will continue to persuade Burger King that they can do it.
