Is Co-op Members for Fairness just a union front?

Co-op Members for Fairness are an independent group of Co-op members that are in agreement with all of the demands put forward by workers represented by UFCW 1400 during the recent strike. We are not a campaign created by the union.

We are entirely self-funded out of individual members’ pockets and donations. Many of us engaged in solidarity picketing with Co-op workers during the strike and hope to act in solidarity in other ways with Co-op workers in the future.

We believe that members have common interests with Co-op workers, especially in that if workers’ power is weakened at Co-op, that negatively affects the power of members, and vice-versa.
