PROTEST
Continued from Page 1
One issue speakers addressed at the
demonstration was the Apparel Industty
Partnership-Fair Labor Association, a
government supported group of corpora-
tions and human rights organizations
aimed to monitor the apparel industry
and eliminate unfair labor practices and
unhealthy working conditions.
Department of Labor spokespeson
Carl Fillichi sa id the AIP-FLA is cur-
rently the only widely-suppsorted initia-
tive to addressing sweatshop labor.
Fillichio said te AlP-FLA coalition of

corporations and human tights groups
etmpowers the partnership.
"These are some of the most respected
human rights groups" Fillichin said.
But protesters said enrprate involve-
ment in the AIP-FLA only serves so aid
profits rather than worker rights.
Additionally, protestera said the lack of
support from religious groups and orga-
nizations like te National Labor

Kernaghan said.
Fillichio said the AIP-FLA is only a
foundation for future ismprovemens.
"Our sense is that the FLA is a floor, not
a ceilinsg' he said.
The AIP-FLA became the target of
Kernaghan and student activists at the
Thursday nmeetittg outlining loopholes in
the partnershtip and said it would be tar-
geted for "mend it or ettd if' reform.
