text: The Fair Labor Association (FLA) is funded by brands like Adidas (and formerly Nike) and therefore can't be trusted to cite and remediate labor violations found in subcontracted factories. If Nike is so confident about working conditions in its subcontracted factories, why is the brand refusing access to the ONLY truly independent labor watchdog organization?? Nike has a long history of labor and human rights violations and should be carefully monitored at all times like every other apparel brand. I'm proud that the UW is taking a stand for the hundred of thousands of garment workers around the world who deserve jobs with dignity and I'm proud to be a UW Alumni!
