The Minneapolis and St. Paul Federation of Teachers, the largest teachers unions in the state, are urging their members NOT to buy their school and classroom supplies at Wal - Mart, in an effort to take a stand against the retailer's unfair labor practices. The unions are even considering taking their action a step farther by not reimbursing their teachers for any supplies purchased at Wal-Mart.
