05 Aug 4 Ways to Support the #IngredionStrike
On August 1, BCTGM members of Local 100G in Cedar Rapids, Iowa went on STRIKE against Ingredion, Inc.
Strike issues include:
- the outsourcing of the bargaining unit jobs,
- diminished seniority rights
- the elimination of guaranteed days off,
- an expanded management rights clause, and
- a wage scale that will move many membersโ wages backwards.
Like our BCTGM strikes of 2021, Local 100G is fighting to end a 2-tier wage system and to provide significant wage increases for all employees (not bonuses).
Here are FOUR ways you can help them HOLD THE LINE:
1) Join the picket line or drop off food/drinks/supplies: 1001 1st Street, SW, Cedar Rapids, IA 52404
2)ย Send a solidarity letter: bctgm100gprez@gmail.com
3) Donate to their Strike Fund/GoFundMe page!
4)ย Help us spread the word on Social Media!
