I commend Wal-Mart for taking this important step of establishing an Employment Practices Advisory Panel and for selecting such highly distinguished leaders to participate in this effort. Dennis Archer and Vilma Martinez are two of the most well respected civil rights and employment opportunity experts in the nation. They both have a lifetime of service and commitment to promoting social justice, equality and diversity. With this Panel, Wal-Mart is moving in the right direction to achieve a broader positive impact for their workforce. |
