We’re Taking Action as Bargaining Continues!
Your bargaining committee visited stores across Maryland and Virginia on October 6th, talking to members and delivering a strong message that, “We demand a fair contract NOW!”
Negotiations have been moving slowly due to the complexity of the Affordable Care Act and its effects on our health care fund, but we are working hard to make sure that our benefits are fully funded in our new contract. More bargaining dates are coming up next week and November.
We will be meeting with the company the 29th, 30th, 31st of October and the 5th, 6th, and 7th of November.
We need everyone to keep wearing their union buttons and letting their store managers know that we need a fair contract now! Contract your representative if you have any questions or concerns.
