“We commend the action of California Attorney General Rob Bonta, as well as the Attorneys General of Illinois and the District of Columbia, for working to halt this brash attempt to loot Albertsons by a handful of ultra-wealthy board members and shareholders.”

UFCW 770 stands in solidarity at Central and 2nd Street in support of workers at 100 Starbucks stores across the United States that went on strike today… on their most popular, red cup day.

UAW Strike!

The bargaining teams have declared strikes to protest the universities’ unlawful behavior and in sympathy and solidarity with the other Academic Workers at UC. It will last until the University corrects its bad faith conduct, or until union membership decides to cease striking.

UFCW 770 stands in solidarity with the 48,000 researchers, postdoctoral scholars, teaching assistants and graders striking this week at University of California campuses across the state this week. All workers deserve fair wages that allow them to live near where they work.

Cal/OSHA-workers need exclusion pay so they can do the right thing & stay home when they’re sick and not lose benefits, healthcare or even their jobs! We can't force workers to choose between infecting others or paying their rent. We must add exclusion pay in the standards! https://t.co/U0B8ypOpJE

Candidates like Jimmy Gomez are fighting hard for you and need your support. Make sure you cast your ballot today!

Attorneys General from California, Illinois and Washington D.C. have filed a lawsuit in D.C. District Court to stop Albertsons from paying its private equity shareholders a $4 billion dividend more than a year ahead of the grocery giant’s proposed merger with Kroger.

The merger of Ralphs/Food4Less and Albertsons/Vons/Pavilions must be stopped! If this proposed merger is approved, it will hurt workers and customers. Let’s stand together to stop the merger!

UFCW 770 strongly condemns elected officials’ divisive behavior, calls on Cedillo and De Leon to resign.

The behavior shown by the two remaining Los Angeles City Council Members involved in the racist conversation is reprehensible. Those types of racist expressions undermine multi-racial, intersectional and working class solidarity.

Congratulations to our new 770 President Kathy Finn!

On the heels of the proposed merger between grocery giants Kroger and Albertsons, on Tuesday, Albertsons announced that it will pay out a $4 billion dividend to shareholders on November 7, 2022.

We want to make it clear to our hard-working members that UFCW strongly opposes this dividend payout.

Hello! My name is Ashley Manning and I’ve been employed with Ralphs for 10 years as of September 26th 2022.

I am honored and uplifted to be an executive board member for UFCW local 770. I take my seat on the board very seriously, ready to make 770 proud of what I bring to the table. I feel right at home with 770 as I share the same passions, views, rights, as our wonderful group of leaders that advocate for people just like me at the stores. Local 770 has been a breath of fresh air for me since I’ve met outstanding union staff that I was able to trust and have faith in.

Linda who is now retired, my first union rep helped me learn and accomplish so much.
Cheryl Butler, who is also now retired, was outstanding at mentoring me. I am forever grateful to have had a great connection with my reps.
Eric Aviles, my rep now, teaches me so much everyday and I feel blessed for the opportunities I’ve had with these amazing people and role models of 770.

Being a mom to my 12 year old daughter is my ultimate hobby.
I enjoy laughing, spreading laughs, joy, and loudness wherever I am for the people that know me… they know lol.

I am a party planner, florist, and love to decorate for any theme and occasion.
