01 Sep 5 Ways to Support the #NabiscoStrike

Posted at 10:37h in Mondelez, Nabisco Strike 2021 by

More than 1,000 BCTGM Members are now on strike at five different Nabisco locations across the U.S. – Portland, Ore. (Local 364), Aurora, Colo. (Local 26), Richmond, Va. (Local 358), Chicago, Ill. (Local 1) and Atlanta, Ga. (Local 42).

After years of Nabisco closing bakeries, moving thousands of BCTGM jobs to Mexico and threatening to move even more jobs to Mexico, our members have had enough and aren’t taking it anymore. They are taking a stand against Nabisco’s outrageous demand for major contract concessions at a time when the company is making record profits.

Here are FOUR ways to support their efforts:

1) Check the Label on all your Nabisco snacks.

Look for the words “Made in Mexico” near the UPC code, or the initials MM or MS in the plant identification code. This indicates the product has been outsourced to Mexico; DO NOT BUY!

Download a flyer for detailed instructions. Print/Share it with your family/friends, post on a bulletin in your community and/or hyperlink it on your website! Use this url: bctgm.org/PDFs/NabiscoSTRIKE_ChecktheLabel.pdf

You can also share this post on Facebook…

…or re-tweet this post on Twitter.

2) Join a picket line or drop off food/drinks/supplies.

Here are the addresses for each strike line:

  • Portland, Oregon: 100 N.E. Columbia Blvd.
  • Aurora, Colorado: 17775 E. 30th Ave.
  • Chicago, Illinois: 7300 Kedzie Ave.
  • Norcross, Georgia: 6300 Brook Hollow Pkwy.
  • Richmond, Virginia: 6002 S. Laburnum Ave.

3) Send a solidarity letter.

Mail or email letters of encouragement directly to the strike line organizers so they can read them to the workers on-location.

4) Donate to a Strike Fund

Strike Funds are helping workers meet basic needs and supply their strike lines so they can remain steadfast in their mission for a fair contract.

Each location has its own fundraiser, organized and managed by Local Union leaders directly in contact with the workers. While the BCTGM International Union supports these fundraising efforts, none of them are directly affiliated with the Headquarters office.

5) Help us spread the word on Social Media!

Make sure you’re following all our social media pages/hashtags and help us re-share daily #NabiscoStrike photos, news articles, podcasts and videos.
