"Hold
the line!" Shawn Powers (Bricklayers of California, Local 3),
handed flyers to motorists entering the Safeway parking lot. "I'm
showing my support for my union brothers and sisters in the Grocery
Clerks because I feel that the healthcare issue is very important.
Without healthcare benefits, you can get in real trouble!" |

Karl
Neubuerger, Local 49 Hotel and Resturant Workers: "I'm here because
Safeway and the other big grocery chains are attacking the middle
class, attacking the gains that we have made, and their attack is
a threat to every union worker, to every worker. If we can't maintain
decent healthcare for our families many people will be looking at
economic ruin. I will be here as long as I need to be." |
