UFCW 324 Commits to Fighting Injustice After Blue Tsunami on Election Day
Buena Park, CA – Today, the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) Local 324 issued the following statement after working people led the country to a Blue Tsunami on Election Day. The statement may be attributed to Jose Perez, President, UFCW 324.
“This week we saw unions take the lead in our election process and proved that when working people come together, we will make our voices heard against the injustices happening in our country, like the persecution of the Minnesota 15, families and children being ripped from their homes, and disabled adults going hungry.
“Union voters mobilized in historic numbers to secure sweeping landmark victories up and down the ballot across the country, including a record number of union member candidates elected to office. Because that’s what unions do. Throughout history, unions have set standards and led the way in defending working people’s rights at their workplaces and in City Hall, and UFCW 324 is committed to continuing that legacy. We will always speak up and fight against injustices to uplift the lives of workers.”
