APWU Convention Votes to Ban Coca-Cola Products
From Aug. 23-27, the 270,000-member American Postal Workers Union held its national convention in Los Angeles with about three thousand delegates in attendance. Delegates passed a resolution, stating:
"That the national American Postal Workers Union requests that the United States Postal Service remove all Coca-Cola products from all postal facilities, and
"That the National American Postal Workers Union requests that all unions, State and Local American Postal Workers Unions, stop purchasing all Coca-Cola products until this issue (Colombian) is resolved."
Delegates from Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota initiated the resolution and, along with others, distributed thousands of pieces of Campaign literature to the delegates.

Found this on killercoke site. Why is Dublin only tentative?

The International Campaign to Hold Coca-Cola Accountable will be on a speaking tour in the UK from October 6-17, 2004. Edgar Paez from Sinaltrainal will be joined by Amit Srivastava of the India Resource Center to bring a unified message — on labor and human rights, environment and social justice — from Colombia and India to hold Coca-Cola accountable for its crimes against humanity. The tour will visit Manchester (Oct 8), Birmingham (Oct 10), Oxford, Dublin (tentative) and end in London (Oct 12-17) with a series of events, where the European Social Forum will be taking place from October 14-17.

We are working with a variety of groups including labor, human rights, environmental justice, development, anti-racist, South Asian and anti-globalization groups.

We need your help to make the tour a success. If you are in the UK and would like to know more about the tour, including visiting your community and supporting the tour, please contact Amit Srivastava at [email protected]
