DESCRIPTION:On Friday, Nov. 19,  visit your nearest Safeway store from 3-6pm and sign a 
 boycott pledge card to help defend affordable healthcare for Northern 
 California\'s grocery workers. Union workers employed by Fortune 50 grocery 
 companies such as Safeway, Albertson\'s, and Kroger earn an average of 
 about $24,000 a year in the Bay Area. The most basic provisions of their 
 contract - not to mention, continued access to affordable healthcare - are 
 currently under threat as a contract covering workers from the central 
 coast to the Oregon border is being negotiated. By declaring your 
 willingness to support a boycott in order to help grocery workers win a 
 fair deal in contract negotiations, you can help ensure that the familiar 
 faces who assist in providing for your daily needs are able to continue 
 providing for their own needs, as well as for the needs of their families.  
 If you have some time to spare on Friday, volunteers are  needed at certain 
 Safeway locations to help collect signatures on the boycott pledge cards. 
 People interested in volunteering should contact Chris Olinger (650) 
 826-1635 or Helen Lee (415) 559-8926 before Friday at noon.\n
