Whole Foods Workers in Philadelphia Vote to Form Chain’s First Union
The union win comes as Amazon, which owns the grocery chain, is also fighting labor organizing in its warehouse and delivery businesses.

@GottaLaff "whole foods to close all stores in Pennsylvania" incoming
@GottaLaff good, whole foods should be unionized. If you want to be 'good' you can't just pick and choose which 'good' you want to embrace. It doesn't work that way if you have an image of social responsibility that you are trying to project.
@GottaLaff #unionstrong let’s go!
It takes a lot of work (and courage!!) to form a union from the ground up. I applaud these workers!
@Danetteb We need more. Trump will do everything he can to destroy them
@GottaLaff absolutely! More unions with a potential strike at some point. Right now there aren’t enough unions to organize a strike like that
@Danetteb @GottaLaff Hopefully it’s not too late by then: https://www.thenation.com/article/activism/general-strike-2028-unions-labor-movement/
