Join us this Friday, January 31st at 4 PM at Jerry’s locations in Eugene and Springfield as we stand with striking workers and the community to urge Dennis Orem, CEO of Jerry’s, to stop supporting Bigfoot Beverages’ illegal union-busting actions. Bigfoot is attempting to steal their workers retirement and has been engaging in illegal and immoral union busting during this historic strike that is now in it’s 131st day, leading to a boycott of Bigfoot Beverages.
Despite knowing about these practices, Jerry’s continues to sell Bigfoot products, effectively condoning their behavior. Let Dennis know that not taking a side means he is siding with union busters and scabs, and if he chooses to stand against workers and the community then we will stand against Jerry’s and against Dennis Orem. Don’t miss this important event to support fair treatment for workers!
Picket Locations for Friday, January 31st at 4pm.
- 2525 Olympic St. Springfield
- 2600 OR-99, Eugene
We have been informed that Jerry’s is aware of tomorrow’s action and has arranged towing services to remove the vehicles of anyone who shows up to stand in support of workers’ rights and the common man.
As a reminder, do not park on Jerry’s property. There is plenty of alternative parking at the Springfield location, and there is also plenty of street parking in the neighborhood behind and around the Eugene Jerries, you can also carpool if your worried about parking.
We will be demonstrating (bannering) along Olympic and Highway 99, both of which are public property. Even though Dennis Orem and Jerry’s appear to want to side with Bigfoot Beverages in their illegal union-busting tactics, we hold them accountable.
Also, as most of you probably know, we are expecting tomorrow. Please dress accordingly and stay dry. — and remember Justice isn’t afraid of a little rain!
