Key Takeaway:
"In defending itself against union busting allegations, Trader Joe’s fired a cannon ball that could sink the ship of modern American labor law.
The grocery store chain is arguing that the federal agency prosecuting it for unfair labor practices — including giving union workers worse retirement benefits and barring workers from wearing union pins at work — is unconstitutional."
Oh, nice! I see Ben & Jerry’s on there, I guess that’s no surprise. And we do use Seventh Generation products, so that makes me feel good.
Unfortunately, I’m guessing there are no major retailers like Walmart or Target, so we’re still kind of trapped into supporting union-busting retail behemoths in some way, unless you’re fortunate enough to live somewhere with more options.
