More than 100 protesters arrested at McDonald’s HQ demanding fair pay

Published time: May 22, 2014 00:15

Over 100 protesters demanding higher wages and improved working conditions were arrested Wednesday outside a McDonald’s corporate office in Oak Brook, Illinois, where thousands assembled to rally against the corporate chain's labor practices.

An estimated 2,000 marched outside the building in suburban Chicago demanding the right to form a union without retaliation and a wage increase to $15 an hour. McDonald’s employees, other food service employees, local church leaders, and union officials were on hand to join in the chants of “Hey McDonald’s You Can’t Hide, We Can See Your Greedy Side” and “No Big Macs, No Fries, Make our Wage Supersize.”

Demonstrators were met with police in riot gear and ordered to disperse. When they instead sat down, blocking the entrance to the McDonald’s building, the police arrested at least 110 people, according to campaign organizers who spoke to the Guardian.
