The union can cut the dues employees like me are forced to pay, and cut the salaries of people like Mr. Both. That’d give employees and instant raise without forcing the grocery stores to lay members off or pass the costs on to customers.

If minimum wage is raised then so should everyone else. Can you live off of $12.00 an hour in NY. I don’t think so!
