3/10 - Solidarity Action with Gallo Workers at Bev and More

by repost
Around 100 people showed up at the Beverages and More on Geary St on March 10th to show solidarity with Gallo workers in Sonoma as they continue to bargain with Gallo for a new contract.

The action was organized by the National Farm Worker Ministry and was attended by various student groups, union folks, community activists, and members of the interfaith community.
The action succeeded in pressuring the assistant manager from Beverages or More to call Gallo to urge them to sign a contract, and there was a similar action in Los Angeles at another Beverages and More. Workers from Gallo of Sonoma spoke at the end of the action, thanked people for the action, and asked for continued support in their struggle for just wages and medical benefits.
