Teamsters Local 705 and US Foods are back at the table this morning in Chicago as the strike against the broadline food distributor continues to grow nationwide. Today, picket lines extended to nearly 1,000 members in St. Louis, Philadelphia, and more California locations.
From coast to coast, Teamsters are holding the line, with thousands of workers honoring picket line extensions in solidarity with Local 705 members. If US Foods doesn’t get serious in negotiations today, things will only get worse for this company as the strike spreads to even more facilities across the country.
Teamsters are united in this fight and will do whatever it takes to make sure they are protected. The company knows what they were up against. It’s time for US Foods to do the right thing and get a deal done today. Tick tock…
