Rite Aid Wrong Way Demo
by CARA Convention Report II
Saturday Oct 18th, 2008 11:07 PM
California Alliance for Retired Americans (CARA) unites retired workers and community groups to win social and economic justice. Members of CARA demonstrated in solidarity with the International Longshore and Warehouse Union at a Rite Aid store at the corner of Van Ness and Market Streets on October 13.

CARA says: "Rite Aid markets to seniors with its *Living More* program. They want our money, but they don't always want to respect workers' rights. And they're not respecting the union in bargaining."
