Unions protest Wal-Mart health care in 35 cities
Unions representing 6 million workers planned to rally in 35 cities from New York to Los Angeles to protest what they called inadequate health care coverage by Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the nation's largest employer. The Change to Win labor federation will denounce what it calls the "Wal-Mart health care crisis" in cities that also include Chicago, Atlanta, Boston and the Dallas suburb of Plano, Texas.
