It's a new year, but not a new Trader Joe's. While we continue to advocate for workers, Trader Joe's continues to ramp up its retaliation in stores and its stalling at the bargaining table. But we will continue to fight.
Trader Joes knows the power their workers have when they unite. That's why they'll do anything they can to stop us. Unfortunately for them, there is no weapon in their arsenal as powerful as class solidarity.
Trader Joe’s United is an independent labor union 100% founded and powered by Trader Joe’s workers. All of TJU’s leadership roles are filled by crew members. We are bagging groceries and stocking shelves while building this movement, writing proposals, and helping other stores organize. It’s not just a catchphrase–we literally are the union.
Instead of allowing the free and fair elections they promised their workers, or bargaining in good faith, Trader Joe's has hired a union-busting law firm and is fighting us every step of the way.
Trader Joe's has fired union supporters, threatened and coerced workers, and continues to drag their feet at the bargaining table.
That's what we're up against. And we can only win with your help. Can you donate today?
