New Leadership elected at UFCW 21

May 14, 2019

An experienced leadership team. Our top leadership team of the union has over 80 years of combined experience with our union. Under their leadership, we have won and enforced some of the strongest contracts in the nation, partnered in community and with elected officials to improve lives for our members and others in our state. Our next challenge is to fully develop a new generation of leadership at each and every workplace. And we are well on our way – with now over 1,500 trained workplace leaders and on target to hit our goal of 2,000 by the end of the year. A strong union is about having racial, economic, and social justice, and we need thousands of workplace leaders to make that happen.
