Last May, AFA delivered over 1 million petition signatures to Target Stores headquarters in Minneapolis, MN. On your behalf, I personally met face-to-face with Target executives, urging them to end AFA's boycott of the company by protecting women and children in their stores.
Unfortunately, Target didn't respond to our concerns. Now, I'm ready to deliver another half-million, but I'll need your help!
We are very close to reaching our next goal of 1.5 million signatures. You can see how close we are here. Please help us get the remaining signatures we need!
Once we reach the 1.5 million signature mark, AFA will personally deliver the additional 500,000 petitions to Target's headquarters.
As a result of Target's continued and dangerous policy of allowing men to use women's dressing and restrooms, women and children have become targets of sexual assault inside its stores.
Target would do well to read U.S. District Judge Reed O'Connor's recent ruling, putting a halt to President Obama’s directive which would have allowed boys to use girls' locker and bathrooms in public schools. In his ruling, Judge O'Connor said, "separation from members of the opposite sex, those whose bodies possessed a different anatomical structure, was needed to ensure personal privacy."
Target's policy does nothing to insure its customer's personal privacy or protection from those who would take advantage of the rule to conduct sexual criminal activity. And according to an article on cnsnews.com, there are over 840,000 registered sex offenders in the United States who could take advantage of Target's unbridled policy.
Please help us reach the 1.5 million signature goal today by doing the following:
1. If you haven't already, sign the pledge to boycott Target.
2. Forward this email to everyone on your email list. Be sure to use the social media tags below to let your friends know you've signed the pledge and are encouraging them to join the boycott too!
3. Let Target know you have signed the pledge by calling your local store manager here. If you don't have a Target store nearby, post your comment on Target's Facebook page here.
