Why we fight...

"You see, Dr. King understood that it is organizing that made us most human. He knew that when we use our social nature to lift each other up, we express our full humanity. We don't realize our potential in life the way corporate America and their media tell us- not by pushing others aside or crawling over anyone's else's back or kissing somebody's ass, but by linking arms and lifting everyone, everyone's family, everyone's kids, everyone's standard of living" ~Stewart Acluff, afl-cio

UFCW 555 has a commitment to rebuild the working class in America. We believe the answer to the current anti-worker climate is link our fates together and organize. Organize for rights on the job, when you cross the threshold at work you lose almost all rights as a non-union worker. Organize for livable wages, real health care and a retirement you can count on. Organize to remind big business who it is that has the ability to hold corporate America accountable; it's not government or regulators, it's the same people it has always been~ workers!

Let's join together to rebuild America and put power back where it belongs in the hands in the hands of workers!
