A MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT ED THOMPSON
If you haven’t already done so please take a moment to register as a Local 776 member or retiree.
Rise Local 776 members continue their strike into day 5. Yesterday, the skies turned black and the thunder was rolling. Management, who have been attempting to keep the building open, came out to see what would happen at the strike line when it started to rain. As the clouds opened up, and the rain started to pour, the striking members put their ponchos on and continued to hold the line. Management retreated back inside to stay dry.
Our strength and resolve is unwavering and our message remains clear: Our members won’t leave this line until the company rescinds their last, best and final offer and negotiates in good faith on a contract that shows these members dignity and respect.
The strike line will be open until 9 pm tonight. We want to thank everyone who continues to support these members each and every day.
Please honor our picket line. Don't purchase RISE products. Let's hit RISE where it counts: their bottom line!
