Last year Walmart vowed to increase its spending by $250 billion on U.S.-made products within the next decade. This month it will mandate that all employees wear Walmart branded vests that were made in Western Asia.
AOL Jobs posted an image of the inside of the polyester vest printed with "Made in Jordan." In 2001, The Huffington Post reported Jordanian workers allegedly endured excessively long work days, withheld pay and violence from their superiors while making clothes for Walmart and other brands.
