Staffers at Warehouse Workers for Justice announced Friday that they are forming a union as part of the Chicago Local 34071 of The NewsGuild-CWA.
“We’re the newest union in Chicago/Joliet! We’re pumped and proud of our members for working together to get to this point,” members of the newly minted group wrote. They plan to meet with management of the workers center this week to work out a voluntary recognition agreement for the Warehouse Workers for Justice Union.
“We can’t wait to secure recognition and fight for the contract we all deserve.”
