WALMART has fired back at calls for a nationwide boycott of the retail chain.
Shoppers are pausing their spending at Walmart, Target, and McDonald’s from May 20 to 26 due to raised prices.
Customers are lashing out at Walmart’s skyrocketing costs following another week-long boycott in April.
When asked for comment, Walmart issued the same statement they gave out last month.
“As one of the largest corporate taxpayers in the country, not only do we pay our fair share, we are an economic force multiplier strengthening communities nationwide through job creation, supplier growth, and over $1.7 billion in cash and in-kind donations last year,” a Walmart spokesperson told USA Today.
“We remain dedicated to earning the business of all Americans and giving our time and resources to causes that uplift and unite communities who rely on us every day.”
Shoppers are also protesting against Walmart and Target for rolling back diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts starting last year.
