Lush is taking some Palestine Action.
Good for them.
How does one support them from the US?
Buying Lush from now on.
So Lush U.S., watcha gonna do?
Donate millions of dollars to Israeli arms?
Oh wait no. That's the US government.
I mean...if they REALLY wanted to make a political statement (which LUSH has done in the states in the past) they would have EVERY Lush close. Just so odd they didn't do it. I'm assuming Lush US is under some other kind of ownership?
I'm sure they're still paying their workers though right? Right?
Yes they are still paying staff.
Ok it didn't say in the article, do you have one that's got more info in it?

Right at the end of the article.
They also closed their uk stores so their staff could attend the 2019 climate rally in the UK. They genuinely seem to be a good corporation.
It mentions agency staff getting paid, unless they only employ agency staff.

I'm not your personal Google, why don't you look for yourself.
Cheers, sorry I was gonna look on my lunch break. But yeah seems like a decent company, a rarity these days.
