I'm a member of the Wedge and I'm going to write to them and voice my displeasure about Eden foods.

1. Will do. I also shared the Daily Kos article on Facebook.

2. I'm a member of the Wedge, too.

I will write to them.

Thanks for the heads up!

4. Great to see you!

5. Thanks! Have been thinking of bringing attention to others besides Hobby Lobby that are cutting

contraception benefits. There are many others besides Hobby Lobby, such as Eden Foods, and I'm worried that they will not suffer any adverse public relations because everybody is focused on Hobby Lobby.

There ought to be a website somewhere in progressive-land that keeps track so we have a one-stop place to look.

6. I received the same canned response linked to in the KOS thread.

I think I'm going to have to cancel my membership. It's disgusting that the Wedge enjoyed the fruits of political activism when Trader Joe's tried to muscle their way into the block -the Wedge's members and local businesses and community rallied around them. So they're ok with *that* kind of activism - the kind that protects their bottom line. They're just fine with looking the other way when it comes to women's rights, though. Too political.

7. Wedge Members - They're firmly standing by Eden Foods.

They really don't care what their members think. If you're interested in canceling your membership , here's the form to do so.
