As of Wednesday, over 40 Safeway stores and a distribution center in Colorado had workers on strike, demanding better pay and working conditions for those workers.

Negotiations between the union and Safeway broke down last week over disagreements on salaries, causing the union to vote to strike on June 6, with workers from dozens of locations joining in the weeks since.

“We have been more than patient for months, but these companies have offered nothing but crumbs and mealy language. Time has run out.”

“We voted so strongly to authorize a strike because we are frustrated that we aren’t seeing movement on issues that matter most to our membership including sick time, vacation time, and time away to deal with the demanding job we do” – Cora Walsh, family medicine provider at Allina West St. Paul.

Challenge for all Leftists:

For every post or comment you make about whatever current left-wing politician is popular now that leftists think will make a change, make 2 posts about a union or strike happening somewhere, anywhere, in the world.

Workers have power, and through the use of that power is how workers will achieve liberation and supremacy in society.

Stop obsessing over politicians.
