Baltimore meeting to support sugar workers

The holiday season turned bitter and cold for 330 Domino Sugar workers when the company forced workers on strike here in Baltimore. The workers, members of Food and Commercial Local 392, began picketing on Dec. 8 to protect their health insurance and retirement security. They are also fighting to stop the company from reducing wages and benefits for new hires. Local union and community activists plan a support meeting at the All Peoples Congress Hall on Dec. 17. To find out how to support the striking workers call Local 392 at (410) 837-0848 or the All Peoples Congress at (410) 235-7040.
