In this special we speak with Anthony, a rank-and-file worker at Seward Co-op with United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) local 663 (www.ufcw663.org/). We discussed the contract that has recently been ratified by workers and includes significant material wins for wages and working conditions. This contract was won after workers voted overwhelmingly to authorize a strike.
