CISPES (Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador) has a campaign to challenge the U.S. Agency for International Development on its role in setting up free trade zones in El Salvador while ignoring labor rights violations in those FTZ's and its role in promoting privatization of Salvadoran assets such as the phone company, ANTEL. Privatization, among its other failings, is a major tool for union busting. Another focus of the campaign, Citibank, is involved in the process of privatizing ANTEL at the same time that Citibank engages in union busting at home.
