Union workers in Pueblo have voted to authorize a strike over the weekend.
According to the UFCW Local 7 Union’s social media, King Soopers Pueblo Meat workers voted 100% to authorize an Unfair Labor Practice (ULP) strike, and King Soopers Pueblo Retail workers voted 97% in favor of authorizing a ULP strike.
This vote comes after Colorado Springs workers authorized a strike on Friday, joining employees of Metro Denver, Boulder, Parker and Broomfield, who also voted to approve the strike. This all happened after negotiations between Local 7 and Kroger-owned King Soopers failed.
