The strike of nearly 4,000 meatpacking workers at JBS in Greeley, CO is the first U.S. meatpacking strike in decades, at the biggest union beef production plant in the country. They're fighting for safe working conditions and higher wages, while the company is only offering them 2% raises.
UFCW members across the country can show their support with these courageous workers by sharing solidarity photos on social media and tagging us @EW4Democracy. You can also email us a photo at contact@ew4d.org. We'll be sharing the photos with members on the picket line to show that their union siblings have their back.
