Hi Neo
The Napa Valley vineyard workers at Charles Krug winery have recently been fired and they need your help to save their jobs. Sign this petition: http://go.care2.com/e/hFbE/plg/t69j In July of this year, the state Agricultural Labor Relations Board told the winery it was filing a formal complaint against the winery. The ALRB complaint alleges the winery cannot refuse to bargain with its vineyard workers over renewing their United Farm Workers contract. Shortly thereafter, all of the vineyard workers were fired. The situation is described by a vineyard employee: "On Friday, July 7, 2006, I along with all of my co-workers was fired from Charles Krug-Mondavi. I felt hurt like many of my co-workers, because we had felt prideful that we had given many of our best years of our life working at Charles Krug-Mondavi only to be told that we were no longer needed despite having contributed to the success of this wine making company." Krug-Mondavi had no legal or moral right to fire these workers! Now, workers with children and families to support are unjustly out of a job. Take action."I have three children that depend on me for their care and upbringing. It has been difficult for me to find work that has a comparable benefits package that I had under Union contract with the Company. Until the Company shows us respect by giving us our jobs back, a fair and just contract, we will have no other option but to boycott the wines of Charles Krug-Mondavi." Fired Charles Krug-Mondavi employees are calling for a nationwide boycott of all Charles Krug and C.K. Mondavi wine labels. Help them save their jobs. Tell Krug-Mondavi that you are joining the boycott of their wines. Thank you for making a difference today! Agata Gussmann,Care2 and ThePetitionSite Team
