Stand Up for Unions
RECEIVED Fri., May 6, 2005
Dear Editor,
Unions are the only way workers have any democracy at work, the only way that we are not completely under the thumb of the employer. The City Council should tell Pepsi that if the workers aren't happy with Pepsi's negotiating, or rather lack of negotiating, then the city will find another soft drink vendor [“Pepsi Brings Union Fight to City Council,” News, May 6].
