Good Old McDonald’s

I just took action on this campaign, and I thought it was important enough to share with you.

When single mother Natalie Gunshannon went to get her first paycheck from her new job at McDonald’s, she was in for a shock. McDonald’s gave Natalie her salary on a debit card that came with hidden charges, like forcing her to pay every time she withdraws her money at her bank.

What’s more, when Natalie asked for a check, McDonald’s said she had to take the card -- and the charges or not take any money at all. This scheme allows her local franchise operator to save the cost of checks by making deals with big banks that force employees to use fee-ridden cards. In many cases, the high costs push workers below minimum wage.

Please join me in telling McDonald's to ban the practice of forcing employees into fee-laden debit cards.
