Support the Metro warehouse strike! Metro Inc. made record profit during #COVID19, but still refuse to pay workers fairly. Without warehouse workers, grocery shelves stay empty. Like all of us, these essential workers deserve decent pay & safe working conditions. #Justice4Workers pic.twitter.com/hsRdg20ayG
