I am certainly in full support of legislation to repeal the sub wage provisions.  However, I'm concerned that we are ourselves discriminating aganst Goodwill by not including and pointing out all the other organizations that also pay their workers sub wages.  To tackle this issues head on we should compile a comprehensive list of all businesses, organizations, etc and be fair in our allegations.

Hi,

I may have missed the email because things have been chaotic on this
end; can I get an extremely quick rundown on why we are doing this?

Thanks
