UFCW Locals Stand With Mott’s Workers Across US (7/15/10)

 

As the strike at the Mott’s plant in Williamson, New York, continues through its second month, UFCW locals across the country are standing united with the striking RWDSU Local 220 members.

UFCW members have distributed flyers at hundreds of supermarkets and discounters, informed customers about the greedy, union-busting tactics of Mott’s and owner Dr Pepper Snapple Group, and let RWDSU Local 220 members know that they have the full support of the 1.4 million member UFCW.

UFCW locals participating in actions in support of the Mott’s strikers included 2, 5, 7R, 21, 22, 23, 27, 38, 75, 88, 99, 135, 152, 227, 271, 304A, 328, 367, 400, 431, 455, 464A, 534, 536, 538, 540, 648, 653, 655, 700, 711, 770, 789, 876, 880, 881, 951, 1000, 1059, 1116, 1167, 1208, 1262, 1360, 1439, 1442, 1459, 1473, 1529, 1546, 1564, 1625, 1657, 1776, 1995, 1996, and 2008.
