Fired Bargain Wholesale Workers Protest; Kroger Members Visit New Store in Henrico(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)

Bargain Wholesale workers, illegally fired by their employer Monday “for wanting to have dignity, respect on the job and fair wages,” successfully turned customers away Wednesday morning, reports UFCW Local 400. The workers continue to push for reinstatement. In other Local 400 news Kroger union members yesterday attended the grand opening of the new Kroger Marketplace located in Henrico, Va. “We brought tunes and cupcakes to the event to chat with customers and employees,” reports Local 400. “Just like store 540 in Virginia Beach, Kroger is attempting to have this store operate non-union.”
