Question for UFCW union members: what happens when the international won’t back workers?
The UFCW International mission says they provide a voice for workers, fight exploitation, secure living wages, and build a better future.
Well, we’re using our voice right now.
We’re the workers who voted almost 100% to strike.
We’re the ones in the plant every day.
We’re the ones who make up the union.
And we’re the ones ready to fight for a fair contract.
OUR union UFCW Local 7 is backing us and standing with us ready to take on this fight. So what’s the problem, International?
Why are the workers ready to fight but the people supposed to support us are holding us back?
We’re tired of speeches about solidarity while workers are being denied the tools we need to actually fight.
Stop weakening your own members.
Stand behind the workers.
Do your job!
Give us our strike sanction!!
