Southern California grocery store workers have been on strike for affordable health insurance at Safeway/Pak-n-Save since October 11th, 2003 and locked out at Altertson's and Ralph's. 70,000 people are without paychecks this holiday season.
Strikers from Southern California are extending their strike picket lines to Safeway stores in Northern California. The strikers are not, at this time, asking Northern California workers to honor the picket line but they are asking customers to honor their picket lines and not shop at Safeway.
